FIFA World Cup 2010 in South Africa is the greatest thing for the fans of soccer worldwide. This is also a green FIFA World Cup, full of eco-friendly ideas, green gadgets. In fact the carbon footprint of FIFA World Cup 2010 will go as low as possible.

Below are some of their eco-friendly endeavors of this event:

1. Green Stadiums: Moses Mabhida Stadium – Durban, Soccer City Stadium – Johannesburg, Green Point Stadium - Cape Town, Peter Mokaba Stadium - Polokwane, Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium - Port Elizabeth

Moses Mabhida Stadium – Durban: The water-saving installation, rainwater collection, energy-efficient heating and cooling systems are applied in this Moses Mabhida Stadium.
 

First of all, wind energy do not generate air or water emissions,  and don't produce any hazardous waste. And wind power don't use natural resources such as coal, oil, or gas, won't cause environmental damage through resource extraction and transportation, don't require significant amounts of water during operation.
 

We can use more wind energy to prevent global warming.

But in fact wind power plants, like all other energy technologies, have some environmental impacts too.

Wind turbines don't consume any fuel or produce pollution during their normal operation, but still have hazards associated with their construction and operation. There are about 40 fatalities due to construction, operation, maintenance of wind turbines

Residential solar panels are meant for residential (home use) rather than commercial. With the use of residential solar panels, we can benefit from both indoor and outdoor lighting, backup power, solar water heater, water pumps, pool heaters, and covers to utilize the solar energy (solar power) in the best possible way.

Get the best residential solar panels and save yourself from the inflated energy bills, such as electricity bills. Make sure you conserve the environment by harnessing renewable energies (green energies), reducing the green house effect and global warming.

Renewable power sources are naturally replenished and are not depleted by use, unlike conventional fossil fuel resources.

Geothermal, wave, tidal, ocean current, hydro, wind, solar, and biomass are the most common renewable resources used in our life to generate renewable energy (sustainable energy).

Increasing levels of energy-related environmental degradation in both industrialized and developing countries have led to recognizing the need for improved energy options for sustainable development. In fact environmental and social concerns must be incorporated early at the regional and sectoral planning stages in order to ensure sustainable development. The important role is the concern about green energy (also called sustainable energy).

However there is unfortunately lot more negative sides of hydropower in China.

First of all, many people that live in southwest China and other locations with huge hydropower potential will be relocated and forced to abandon their households once these big installation projects take place. Good news is that Southwest China isn't that heavily populated as some other parts of China, but still lots of people will have to abandon their homes and many of them are already worried about their future.

For example, Dadu River that has the biggest hydropower potential capable of having 22 power plants installed in near future will cause relocation of more than 100,000 people once if this project starts. Some environmentalists and ecologists call this massive hydropower project as the second worst ecological disaster in China's history, comparable to terrific deforestation that was happening in period between the 50s and the 90s.

Water ways are not the same as they used to be since hydroelectric power plants altered their way. And this has destroyed many different ecosystems. This scenario should be expected in southwest China too.
