During the 2006 FIFA World CupTM held in Germany, a programme called Green Goal aimed to ensure that the environmental
impacts from energy and water use, waste management and transport, were reduced as much as possible, and that the
remaining carbon emissions were offset so that the event was carbon neutral.
The environmental baton has now been handed over from Germany to South Africa, where a similar Green Goal programme
is currently underway for the 2010 FIFA World CupTM, in which host city Cape Town is proud to play a leading role.
This Green Goal Action Plan by Host City Cape Town for the 2010 FIFA World CupTM lists those interventions that will reduce
the carbon footprint of the event in Cape Town. It follows more than a year of hard work by many people, in hosting
workshops, conducting feasibility studies and reviewing the impact of major events in Germany and elsewhere. Finally,
it highlights some opportunities for local, national and international donors and the private sector to consider mutually
beneficial partnerships that will enable host city Cape Town to deliver a full-scale greening effort.
In this regard, Cape Town has already benefited from the contribution of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS), for which
we are especially grateful.
A number of legacy projects have been identified, with long-term benefit to residents a green
legacy is very much part of our sustainable development approach. More trees, increased
waste reduction and recycling, energy and water saving technologies, increased use of non
motorized transport, infrastructural development that benefits all communities and encourages
responsible tourism, are only some of the long-lasting benefits from the 2010 FIFA World CupTM that residents of the Western
Cape will enjoy long after the 2010 FIFA World CupTM has come and gone.
This commitment and real practice can only improve our attractiveness as a destination for investors and visitors, while
improving the infrastructure and facilities for all who live and work here permanently.
Greening the 2010 FIFA World CupTM requires a massive effort that involves partnerships between the private sector and
government, and between NGOs and government. In this regard, the Provincial Government of the Western Cape
acknowledges the kind contribution of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS) with respect to the Green Goal Workshop
Series, and we look forward to further partnerships in future.
This Green Goal Action Plan by Host City Cape Town for the 2010 FIFA World CupTM is a blueprint of commitment and hope
for the people of Cape Town and the Western Cape. It will require determination and hard work to ensure success, but
the rewards will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and environmental legacy opportunities that give our surroundings
and infrastructure a major long-term boost.
Political will is essential for turning good intentions into action. On behalf of KAS, I would like to thank and compliment our
partners in this project, the City of Cape Town and the Western Cape Provincial Government for demonstrating their
political will to make the 2010 FIFA World CupTM a green event with a sustainable legacy.
This Action Plan is the ultimate product of a workshop series, hosted and organized by KAS and Sustainable Energy Africa
(SEA), that involved relevant stakeholders from all three spheres of government, from academia, civil society, business
and the media.
I am confident that the implementation of this Action Plan will not only assist in the greening of the 2010 FIFA World CupTM,
but in the greening of future major events in the region, throughout South Africa and the world.

Sustainable procurement:
Promote sustainable procurement of goods and
services used for the planning, operation, management,
maintenance and decommissioning of the event.
The use of locally produced products and services, as
well as products that have a minimal effect on the
environment will contribute to effective greening.
Purchasing re-useable products and minimising
packaging will also assist with waste reduction and save
on cost. Green criteria should also influence the selection
of venues (hotels, conference facilities) and transport
(buses, airport transfer).

Water management:
Interventions to use water efficiently and to promote
awareness and behaviour change around water
use and management, including water demand
management and water efficient technologies should
be key to all aspects of the event. Water usage,
in particular that of potable water, in all aspects of
planning, operation, management, maintenance and
decommissioning, should be minimized and monitored.
Energy efficiency:
Awareness of and adherence to energy efficiency should
be promoted in planning for and hosting the event in
order to reduce energy consumption and change the
way people use energy. Energy saving technologies,
management systems and behaviour change should
be adopted in all aspects of planning, operation,
management, maintenance and decommissioning of
the events infrastructure. The use of renewable energy
should be promoted wherever possible. Energy
efficiency is a particularly important consideration in the
transport sector.
