Protection of the environment is the responsibility of everyone. SNZ, as a national body recognizes it’s responsibility and is committed to understanding and minimising the impact of its activities on the environment. Therefore SNZ will look to ensure that the organisation:
- Efficiently manages waste and recycles wherever possible
- Minimses energy consumption
- Ensures that SNZ events are managed on a sustainable basis and that site impact is minimized
- Continuously looks to improve it’s environmental performance
Environmental issues outside of SNZ’s own ability to manage can be difficult to analyse and often require the application of considerable resource and expertise. SNZ recognizes that it has limited resource and therefore will only respond to environmental issues where:
- The issue has been raised by an affiliated club
- Any response has been approved by the Board
- The Board is satisfied that any response will not impose immediate or potential material financial obligations upon SNZ
