Abstract

Sports are indispensable in people’s daily life. Sports can exercise and strengthen the body. Therefore, with the development of the times, people’s demand for sports is also increasing, so the development of sports has become very important. The development of sports would occupy a large number of natural resources and cause damage to the natural environment, which is obviously not in line with the strategy of sustainable development, so it is very important to compete and cooperate with the natural environment. This paper studied the cooperation and win-win of sports and natural environment protection based on the theory of cooperation and competition, aiming to make the natural environment and sports develop reasonably through the cooperation and win-win. This paper tested the extent to which the cooperation and win-win between sports and the natural environment reduced the pollution of the natural environment. The experimental data showed that the win-win cooperation between sports and natural environment could reduce the pollution of natural environment by 5% to 10%, while the win-win cooperation between sports and natural environment could reduce the cost of sports by 10% to 25%, which meant that the win-win cooperation between sports and natural environment has a good effect and is suitable for wide promotion.
