F1 Pushing for 'Net Zero Carbon' by 2030

Formula 1 has announced an ambitious plan to have a ‘net-zero carbon’ footprint by 2030.

“With the development of a 100 per cent sustainable fuel, slashing the use of single-use plastics and reviewing travel and freight logistics – these are just some of the things Formula 1 as a sport is working on as part of its commitment to be ‘ net-zero carbon’ by 2030,” Formula One said in a release.

This initiative will cover the Formula 1 cars and on-track activity and the rest of the operations during the race. The plan comes after intense work with the FIA, sustainability experts, Formula 1 teams, promoters, and partners, resulting in an ambitious, yet achievable delivery plan.
