  • Marc Gasol: a champion committed to the planet

    Marc Gasol has lived through a quite brilliant and intense season among basketball’s elite. His career at the highest level is like that of a long-distance runner who, despite the solitude and hardship of the race, keeps going till he reaches the winning line. A fighter, leader, man of integrity, these are just some of his many attributes.

    Gasol is a star of the NBA: second player in its history to win the NBA championship (with the Toronto Raptors) and the Basketball World Cup (with Spain) in the same season; three times named in the All-Star; voted best defense in the NBA in 2013, and; best pivot in 2015.

    Distinctions that show the respect the basketball world has for Marc Gasol, a player with an extraordinary talent he has had to adapt and reinvent many times over his career to arrive at such a stellar level.

    That’s Marc on the court. Off court, his commitment to society and the environment is indisputable too. He tends his own allotment, promotes healthy living, practices sustainable mobility by driving an electric car, and we saw him on the vessel Open Arms in the middle of the Mediterranean helping to rescue a group of migrants.

    Now Marc Gasol is supporting ACCIONA’s commitment to renewable energies and sustainable infrastructure in the fight against climate change. Fighting for a better planet.

  • “In my life there are constant changes.

    You change your team. Your teammates. You change your city, your language...you even win a ring. Your life changes. Your family changes. And it's because where before there were just two of us ... now there's more.

    The planet changes. And that also makes you change. Changes your way of consuming. Changes your priorities.

    Because there are decisions that can change the future. Changes which guarantee a world free from emissions, with renewable energies, with sustainable infrastructures, providing universal access to drinking water.

    Because there comes a day when you care more about the future than the present. A day on which you realize that you are changing. Changing to make the planet a better place." 

     Marc Gasol
