Changing the course
for good.
Golf, Nature, our Future
All Interconnected
We’re entering a pivotal era—where golf, the natural world, and our broader communities must evolve together. Golf is facing both new pressures and new possibilities. It’s time to unite and lead from the front.
As one of the world’s most popular sports, golf brings people, recreation, nature and tourism together. But like any land-based activity, it can come with environmental consequences— ranging from water use and chemical inputs to habitat disruption and carbon emissions tied to maintenance practices.
The good news? Positive change is already underway.
Clubs, players, and partners are embracing smarter, more sustainable approaches that protect the game’s future while supporting local ecosystems and communities.
