💬 FAN ENGAGEMENT = CLIMATE ACTION 💬

In Session 7 of the Champions Community, we explored football’s climate superpower: fan engagement.

❤️ The beating heart of the game has always been its fans - and when players and supporters unite for something bigger than football, incredible things can happen.

⚽️ With guidance from guest speaker Katie Cross (Pledgeball), our Champions discovered how authentic engagement can build connection, participation, trust, and impact.

🥅 It’s a reminder that football’s most exciting opportunity isn’t just on the pitch - it’s in how we use the power of fan connection to create real climate impact.

🌍 When fans and players move together, football’s greatest strength becomes its greatest force for change.

We hosted the only football & climate event at Climate Week NYC, launching Pitches in Peril — a new climate risk analysis ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup 🌍⚽️

From sportswear brands to grassroots orgs, FIFA host committees to sport journalists, the room was buzzing with energy, ideas, and inspiration.

Shout out to our partners with whom we feel blessed to keep breaking barriers with.

We’ve got work to do — but sometimes you gotta step back, take it in and smile 💚

⚽🌍 Pitches in Peril: How Climate Change Is Threatening Football ❓

From World Cup stadiums to the grassroots pitches where legends were made, climate change is already disrupting the game, and it’s only getting worse.

A new report by Football For Future, Common Goal, and climate experts Jupiter Intelligence reveals four urgent truths:

🔥 14 of 16 venues are projected to exceed safe-play heat thresholds by 2050.
  🚫 11 could face “too hot to play” conditions.
  🌱 The grassroots pitches where legends like Messi, Ronaldo, and Salah learned the game are already being lost to heat, drought, and flooding.
  📣 87% of fans say climate change is already affecting football, and nearly 9 in 10 want their clubs to lead the way.

For the first time, climate scientists and footballers have come together to show that without urgent climate action, the future of football is at risk.

👟 From World Cup winners to grassroots heroes, players are uniting behind one message: Football cannot survive without climate action.
