SUPER BOWL 50 ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAM The NFL and the Super Bowl 50 Host Committee teamed to develop a series of initiatives reducing environmental impact of Super Bowl activities and to leave a “green” legacy throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.

9 Super Bowl 50 Urban Forestry Project: In January, throughout the weeks leading up to Super Bowl 50, NFL Environmental program and Verizon joined forces in several of these projects including the Super Bowl 50 Urban Forestry Project and a public E-Waste Recycling Rally. Hundreds of trees were planted in parks, playgrounds, schoolyards and other public spaces. A large-scale reforestation project, in partnership with American Forests and Verizon, will plant 28,000 trees in the Sierra Nevadas – many of these trees will restore the watershed area that provides drinking water for the entire San Francisco Bay area.

Food Recovery: The NFL and Host Committee are teaming with a coalition of nearly a dozen food banks and food recovery organizations to recover prepared food from kitchens and minimize food waste. Prepared food will be distributed to soup kitchens and community centers throughout the Bay area. There will be an intensive drive to collect and donate everything left over from Super Bowl 50 events. Building material, décor, fabric, carpeting and sign materials will be donated to local organizations that can reuse, repurpose or remanufacture the material. This project keeps material out of local landfills and also turns this material into valuable items for resale or reuse.

Renewable Energy Project: In partnership with PG&E, much of the energy to power Super Bowl 50 related activities will be renewably generated. Gen 4 temporary power generators used in Super Bowl City will run on Neste NEXBTL renewable diesel. Where renewable power is not feasible, renewable energy credits (RECs) will be utilized to reduce greenhouse gas impact. Travel emissions for Super Bowl teams and officials are being offset in partnership with TerraPass. TerraPass will also provide RECs where needed to offset emissions from other venues including Levi’s Stadium, site of Super Bowl 50. TerraPass works with businesses and individuals to create sustainable solutions to fight climate change. TerraPass helps customers determine and mitigate their environmental footprint through carbon offsets, renewable energy, and water restoration certificates.

The Play Your Part Campaign (Saturday, Jan. 30 – Sunday, Feb. 7) – The Play Your Part online campaign is collaboration between the Host Committee, 50 Fund, in/PACT and Citizen Group focused on engaging with fans and inspiring them to personally contribute towards the Host Committee’s goal of delivering Super Bowl 50 as a “Net Positive” event. As a reward for Net Positive behavior, the 50 Fund will enable fans to decide how $200 000 from the Sustainable Environments Game Changer Grant is allocated amongst Bay Area environmental nonprofits, as well as providing fans a chance to win one of nine daily Super Bowl 50 related prizes including tickets to The Big Game.

Enhanced Transportation (Saturday, Jan. 30 – Sunday, Feb. 7) – Host Committee is working with regional transportation agencies to enhance public transit during Super Bowl week (Jan. 30 – Feb. 8). This will include additional service on WETA and GGB Ferry, and BART and Muni. Super Bowl 50-branded Clipper cars help promote the use of public transit via the Host Committee’s partnership with the MTC. On Super Bowl Sunday, the Host Committee has coordinated a special ‘SB 50’ pass with VTA and Caltrain to ensure that public transit remains a viable option to get to Levi’s stadium.

The Super Bowl 50 Fan Express and Car (Sunday, Feb. 7) – The Super Bowl 50 Fan Express and Car Share, the Host Committee’s Fan Express motor coach program, will provide fans with convenient, sustainable transport to Levi’s stadium on gameday. Pick-up points will be spread throughout the Bay Area and will include buses being utilized are locally based running on Neste NEXBTL renewable diesel.
