Extreme E is the first sport built out of concern for the climate crisis. The series\u2019 goal is to use electric racing to highlight remote environments under threat of climate change issues, and to encourage us all to take positive action to protect our planet\u2019s future.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With 30 percent of the planet\u2019s CO2 emissions coming from transport, Extreme E exists to showcase the performance of electric vehicles, using the powerful mix of thrilling sports action, scientific education and storytelling to accelerate their adoption in order to reduce CO2 emissions and achieve a more sustainable lifestyle.<\/span><\/p>\n

As well as its overall mission, Extreme E is committed to having a net-zero carbon footprint by the end of its first season, which means offsetting what it cannot avoid via ALLCOT certificated global programmes.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/div>\n
