WINNIPEG, March 11, 2019 - Ensuring that hockey thrives for future generations, the NHL is celebrating Green Month in March. As part of the initiative, the Winnipeg Jets will host their second annual Go Green Night at Bell MTS Place (BMP) on Thursday, March 14 when the Boston Bruins come to town. Game time is 7 p.m. CT.
As part of the night, the Jets will host Climate Change Connection and Green Action Centre on the concourse. The organizations will promote ways for Jets fans to be more environmentally friendly, and provide information on how to do so.

The NHL's environmental mission aims to find areas in which the league can reduce its environmental impact, transform the larger hockey industry to adopt sustainability best practices, and inspire the communities that they play in to follow their lead. The Jets Go Green Night will promote the many ways True North Sports + Entertainment and the league are meeting those goals to protect our planet.
With various venues throughout Winnipeg, True North not only strives to monitor and improve its environmental footprint at BMP, but at all of its facilities including the Bell MTS Iceplex, Burton Cummings Theatre, and Camp Manitou. The major areas of focus are on recycling efforts, waste management, energy efficiency, and water conservation.
As a member of the Green Sports Alliance (GSA) the Winnipeg Jets and Bell MTS Place are working to identify the necessary tools to make informed sustainable choices that benefit their fans, their venues, their bottom lines, and the environment:
Last year, True North carried the Go Green campaign into the summer, leading community park cleanups at Stephen Juba Park, St. Vital Park, and Omand's Creek in late August and early September. True North will again host park cleanups in summer 2019 in partnership with the Manitoba Eco-Network.
