Routledge Greenwashing Sport (Cultural Studies) - Routledge Book

Explore the complex relationship between professional sports and the global environmental crisis in Greenwashing Sport. While many sports organizations promote their green credentials, this work examines how they remain complicit in ecological issues. Toby Miller investigates the significant carbon footprints generated by stadium construction, energy consumption, player and spectator travel, and global media coverage. The book looks at how sponsorship deals with gas and petroleum industries help extractive corporations build a positive image by embedding themselves within the pleasure of sport. This text provides a deep look at how these activities function as greenwashing. It is a necessary resource for those studying the ethics of business, finance, and the cultural impact of sports on climate change.
