Yet, football itself is making the crisis worse. The study reveals that the sport emits 64-66 million tonnes of CO2e per yearโ€”more many countries' annual emissions.

๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ’ฅ HUGE WIN for @StopCambo! Massive congrats to all who have campaigned tirelessly for this. This is a breakthrough for public over private interests. For a liveable future over fossil fuel profits. Now, the government must cancel Rosebank and ban new oil and gas for good.
BREAKING ๐Ÿšจ: WE WON OUR CASE AGAINST ROSEBANK. The court has ruled the oil field UNLAWFUL and Rosebankโ€™s approval has been overturned. This is a monumental victory in the fight for a liveable future for all.

Yesterday, world No. 1 Jannik Sinner teetered on the brink due to extreme heat at the Australian Open. Yet, the tournament still advertises the polluting industries that profit from business-as-usual warming. @AustralianOpen โ€“ climate leadership means dropping Emirates and Kia.
Jannik Sinner physically shaking during his match against Rune at Australian Open He told his team he wasnโ€™t able to โ€˜move to his leftโ€™ Visibly struggling and hasnโ€™t been the same for the last two sets Likely adrenaline combined with not feeling 100%
