Goal For Green: Jamshedpur FC’s first match aims at sustainability


The first JFC home match of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2018-19 season played at the JRD Stadium with a big win for the cause of sustainability with a concerted effort around single use plastic reduction and waste management resulting in the first such eco-friendly event this ISL season at Jamshedpur and the harbinger of many more to come.

Meals that were earlier served in plastic box have been replaced with multi-use boxes served in cardboard box. Instead of plastic bags, paper bags have been introduced and water provided in disposable paper glasses, limiting the use of plastic bottles.

There has been complete elimination of ‘Flex’ material totaling an area of 8000 square feet. The same has been replaced with plywood and painting as alternative media.

The waste generated during the event will be managed in an environment friendly manner. Color coded bins were strategically placed to ensure waste segregation at source itself.
