DeAndre Jordan: 'I care so much about the environment'

Denver Nuggets and former NBA Champion DeAndre Jordan featured on BBC Sports and Sky Sports talking about his passion for the planet, the next generation and the Green Action League.

Jordan said he does not implore his team-mates to become vegan, but makes himself available to answer their questions.

"I feel like it’s my job to give them the bullet points and then they can make the decisions on their own," he said.

Jordan said he is not prescriptive about telling people to go vegan permanently.

"Whatever part of your journey you’re in, you should be able to embrace that. If you go plant-based for one year, that's a year of great service you've done for the environment."

Jordan said he tries to pass on knowledge about food and the environment to his children.

"They have a 30-year head start to make our environment better," he said.
