Climate changes are also a threat to football. It's time for @FIFAcom to take real climate action ✊ One thing to do: stop promoting fossil fuel companies!.
It’s time for FIFA to get serious about what heat means for its flagship summer tournaments and football globally ⚽️🌎. Take real action to safeguard players and fans. Start by dropping the pro-oil sponsors all around the pitch 🛢️✈️ .

Great news!.
🎉 Saudi PhD student Salma al-Shehab has now been released from prison!. This follows over four years of arbitrary imprisonment on the basis of her peaceful activism. Her full freedom must now be granted, including the right to travel to complete her studies @UniversityLeeds.

Dear @FIFAcom How can you justify the sponsorship deal with Saudi Aramco? FIFA must live up to its values on climate and human rights.
As the world gathers for the UN Climate Conference, FIFA is enjoying a sponsorship deal with Saudi oil giant Aramco despite warnings from the UN that Aramco is not living up to the Paris Agreement and is in fact expanding its fossil fuel production 🌍 . 👉

How can @FIFAcom justify this? Football too has to be part of the green transition!.

I am looking forward to watching this documentary tonight, hearing the voices of Saudi women who we have been seeking to stand alongside this week in our letter to FIFA.
#SaudiArabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is widely praised for giving Saudi women much more freedom – but for some the changes have come at a huge personal cost. Kingdom Uncovered: Inside Saudi Arabia is on ITV1 and ITVX at 22.15 tomorrow. #KingdomUncovered

Women in football are standing up for what’s right: no to human rights abuses, no to fossil fuel sponsorships. Join the call to demand @FIFAcom drops @aramco as a sponsor! #SaudiAramNo #FairPlayNotOilPay #football #DropAramcoFIFA
