Synopsis "Football and climate change. The unsustainability of the beautiful game"

Football and climate change is the first comprehensive academic engagement tackling the relationship between the beautiful game and climate change. Bridging Environmental Politics, Environmental Sociology and Sports Management Studies, the book has broad appeal across academia and for practitioners. It explores the history and present of football’s relationship to fossil capital, and then delves deep into how ecological sustainability is understood in football. The book is based on interviews with key actors working to make the sport more sustainable. It points to the roles of petrostates in hosting international tournaments and owning major football clubs as particularly problematic instances of sportswashing. Ultimately, Football and climate change sets out a research agenda for scholars across disciplines and suggests actions for actors with a stake in the sport to make it more sustainable.

This book is the first in-depth academic effort to explore football’s role in causing climate change, as well as its potential to address it. Football matters as an industry, but above all, as culture. The book explores how sustainability is understood in football, as well as how that needs to change to secure a long-term future.
