“Sustainability is a comprehensive philosophy in which a variety
of environmentally friendly materials and procedures are utilized to
help reduce energy expenditures.” Over the last decade many individuals
and organizations, including the sports industry, have adopted this
philosophy. Many of the new and renovated stadiums are considered “green
facilities”. Please review the journal below, your textbook and the
Internet to complete this assignment: You are the facility manager of a
sports facility of your choice. Upper management has asked for you to
come up with future plans to renovate or rebuild your facility making it
a green facility. Come up with 8-10 ways to make your facility green
and your reasoning behind each one. Use your imagination, money is no
object! Create your presentation using PowerPoint and be sure to include
graphics to support and enhance your presentation.
Your Powerpoint Presentation must have at
least 10 slides. Your title slide and your reference slide do not count
towards the 10-slide minimum.
