Abstract

Renewables and environmental challenges have become the headlines of academic discussions and interactions between international communities. In recent years, economists have studied the issue of improving the conditions of renewables and environmental resources from various aspects. In this article, the issue of how sports management affects renewables and environmental resources and what the roles of green financing are were considered using the survey research method. The 439 Respondents to questions were invited to this web survey through environmental NGOs in China, Iran, South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Singapore, and Kazakhstan. The significant results confirmed a unified opinion among the respondents with different work experiences about the belief in the greening of sports management. Developing the use of green financing tools, creating a "green sports management network" discourse, cultivation through various communication media to increase public knowledge of the greening of sports management, and development of green power generation for sports venues such as stadiums, swimming pools are the policies provided by this research.
