Start Exercising!

  • Your running steps, swimming stokes, cycling pedal strokes, rowing strokes, and gym workouts will, when entered into the Climategames app, be converted into an environmental currency.

  • The team that exercises the most between now and Earth Day, April 22— and thus removes the most CO2 — wins the Cup!

  • YOUR EXERCISE FUNDS CARBON REMOVAL!

The currency will invest in a methane capture project in Turkey

  • Methane (CH4), a greenhouse gas (GHG) that is 80 to 100 times more potent than CO2.

  • Methane leaks from landfills and natural gas transmission are significant sources of global GHG emissions.

  • The 2024 Collegiate Cup project funds the capturing of methane at a major landfill project in Turkey and converting it into cleaner generated electricity.
