CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION People in Germany have access to sanitation and clean drinking water, and the country is currently not facing a water shortage. However, the hot summers in recent years have demonstrated that Germany is not immune to the effects of climate change. That is why BVB is taking the responsible consumption of water very seriously. At the club's state-of-the-art training ground in Dortmund-Brackel, rainwater is collected in cisterns and used to irrigate the pitches. Although this is not yet the case at the stadium, we are currently looking into collecting rainwater to use for ushing toilets and watering the pitch.

SUSTAINABLE CITIES AND COMMUNITIES Borussia Dortmund has deep roots in the city and region, and together with our partners, we are working to advance social, economic and ecological development in the region. For us, the key to promoting social advancement in the long term is a sustainable stadium. This is closely aligned with spectator safety, the stadium experience, energy efciency, the use of renewable energy, mobility concepts and policies, sustainable use of resources and strengthening community ties. These aspects of sustainable development are all inextricably entwined in an urban context.

AFFORDABLE AND CLEAN ENERGY The supply of affordable and clean energy is a major challenge of critical importance for almost every society. Whether it's jobs, security, climate change, food production, or economic development, access to and consumption of clean energy is essential.
