Really impressed to hear @IvanLiburd present plans to make @LeicNirvana first net zero amateur footy club in the UK. Great example of the commitment from #FootballForTheGoals members.
I had the pleasure of presenting to the #UnitedNations @CarlosIslam and clubs/ university's from #Germany #Benin #Nigeria #TheGambia to discuss how @LeicNirvana are opening opportunities for inner city communities to be involved in Net Zero & sustainability.

In 2015, @LeoDiCaprio was at #COP21 when the #ParisAgreement was adopted.
He has continued to promote its implementation ever since then.
At #COP26, I thanked him for his #ClimateAction work and support for the @UN as Messenger of Peace.
