My latest for @playthegame-org.bsky.social, where I attempt a true cost carbon accounting of the Canada-Mexico-USA World Cup, and conclude that it will be the deadliest sporting event in history, producing emissions that will kill more than 70,000 people. I call this madness "Infantinocide."
FIFA’s 2026 World Cup could emit 70 million tons of CO2 with deadly human costs

Cristiano Ronaldo’s new oil funded contract is reportedly worth $675m 😳

While the Loss and Damage Fund to help poorer countries harmed by climate disasters has received contributions totalling $358m 😕

That’s around 0.1% of the $300 billion estimated annual cost of disaster related losses 😬

Are we going like our National Football Federations, to continue approving and legitimising FIFA's criminal decisions?

Or are we finally going to have the courage, as the women's footballers have shown us, to OPPOSE a FIFA that is killing the planet, people and, football?

Robin has travelled from Sweden to Zurich to send FIFA a clear message - protect people and our planet, stop Saudi '34!

If only the associations and administrators complicit in this decision had the same moral courage as one young fan...🌎⚽️

Proud to stand with @climateactionfa.bsky.social 💪

Concerned about football and climate change issues. I recently created my association @climateactionfa.bsky.social. I'm also proud to be part of @fossilfreefootball.bsky.social community.

Let's take action together against FIFA, which respects neither the climate emergency nor human rights.

My article on how FIFA's competitions are being bankrolled by big oil money and how female footballers are fighting back. Male players, fans, and gov bodies in football must join their call to end fossil fuel sponsorship in football!

In a week, FIFA will make it official that the 2034 Men's World Cup will be held in Saudi Arabia. Is this the football we want tomorrow?
How long will we continue to accept FIFA's decisions taken at the expense of the Planet, Human Rights and even Football?
