As everybody knows the climate change is a major concern for almost every country. Using plastics and carbon are harmful to the environment, also it makes the atmosphere polluted. So, to spread the awareness of the threat of climate change Sky, Tottenham Hotspur, and the United Kingdom government has taken this initiative to conduct the world’s net-zero carbon major football match.
