Sports can help you keep fit and get close to nature.However,whether you are on the mountains,in the waves or on the grassland,you should realize that the sport you choose might have great influence on the environment.

Some sports are resource-?hungry.Golf,as you may know,eats up not only large areas of countryside,but also lots of water.Besides,huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场)in good condition.This causes major environmental changes.For example,in the dry places of Portugal and Spain,golf is often the main reason for serious water shortages(短缺)in some local areas.

There are also many environment-?friendly sports.Walking is one of sports that you could take up today.You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes,and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse.Simple and free,walking can also help you stay healthy.If you walk regularly,it will be good for your heart.Experts say that 20 minutes of speed walking daily can make you feel less anxious,sleep well and keep thin.

Whatever sport you take up,you can make it greener by using environment? friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials.But the final goal should be “green gyms”.They are better replacements(替代品)for traditional health clubs and modern sports centres.Members of green gyms play sports outdoors,in the countryside or other open spaces.There is no special requirement for you to start your membership(会员身份).And best of all,it's free.
