Earth FC launches campaign focused on football and climate change

Earth FC has initiated an environmental campaign titled ‘defending where football lives,’ focusing on how climate change is affecting football. The project aims to show the immediate impacts of climate change on local football communities rather than framing it as a distant issue. Significant concerns include altered kick-off times, unusable pitches from flooding, and the strain on community routines. Jenna Lamb, the campaign director, emphasizes the need to address these disruptions, which threaten football's foundational social aspects. Earth FC presents itself as a football club, attempting to integrate into the sport's culture and community rather than existing as a separate environmental initiative.
