Synthetic rubber, such as ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam, is widely used in gymnastics mats due to its durability, shock-absorbing properties, and resistance to wear and tear.

LED lighting offers reduced energy consumption, improved lighting quality, and a longer lifespan compared to traditional lighting systems, making it a sustainable choice for gymnastics facilities.

Frequent replacement of gymnastics equipment is not a sustainable practice as it leads to increased waste and resource consumption. Regular maintenance and proper care can extend the lifespan of equipment, reducing the need for frequent replacements.

The "Green Gymnastics" initiative aims to promote sustainable practices within the sport of gymnastics, encompassing various aspects such as energy efficiency, waste reduction, and responsible equipment management.

Synthetic fibers, such as nylon and polyester, are not sustainable choices for gymnastics apparel due to their non-biodegradable nature and the environmental impact associated with their production.

Proper ventilation in gymnastics facilities ensures improved air quality, reduces energy consumption by optimizing heating and cooling systems, and enhances athlete performance by providing a healthier training environment.

Recycling and composting are sustainable waste management practices that reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills and promote the reuse of materials.

Using energy-efficient appliances and equipment in gymnastics facilities leads to reduced operating costs, lower carbon emissions, and can contribute to improved athlete performance by creating a more comfortable training environment.

Excessive water usage is not a sustainable practice as it depletes water resources and increases the burden on wastewater treatment systems.

Responsible equipment disposal through recycling, reuse, or proper waste management practices prevents pollution, conserves resources, and reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills.

Single-occupancy vehicle use is not a sustainable transportation practice as it contributes to increased traffic congestion, air pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions.

Utilizing renewable energy sources in gymnastics facilities reduces carbon emissions, lowers operating costs by reducing reliance on traditional energy sources, and contributes to improved energy efficiency.

Providing single-use plastic water bottles is not a sustainable practice as it contributes to plastic waste and pollution.

Sustainable landscaping practices, such as using native plants, efficient irrigation systems, and reducing the use of pesticides and fertilizers, contribute to reduced water consumption, enhanced biodiversity, and improved air quality around gymnastics facilities.

Using disposable plates and utensils is not a sustainable practice as it contributes to plastic waste and pollution.
