Sport and biodiversity are closely related and influence each other. Sports facilities located in natural environments not only contribute to the protection and preservation of biodiversity, but can also have an impact on it, for example through landscape changes or the adaptation of habitats. Fragmentation by buildings, for example, poses a potential risk to biotic communities.

At the same time, sport offers opportunities to sensitize people to the importance of biodiversity. Through sporting activities in nature, people can directly experience how diverse and valuable natural habitats are. Nature sports such as hiking, surfing or climbing not only promote physical fitness, but also have the potential to influence biodiversity. On the one hand, they convey a deeper understanding of the environment and contribute to people's commitment to protecting ecosystems, but on the other hand they can also exert pressure on these systems. Sports events and organizations can also serve as platforms to raise awareness of environmental issues and the importance of biodiversity, but can also have negative consequences for habitats due to the pressure of use. They can help to make environmental problems visible and develop solutions to preserve biodiversity. Sport therefore not only has an impact on biodiversity, but can also help to raise people's awareness of the importance of protecting natural diversity and motivate them to act in an environmentally conscious manner. 

Overall, the multifaceted cross-cutting topic of sport and biodiversity conveys a variety of approaches to promote environmental protection and sustainable development.
