About this listen
This week, hosts Katie Cross and Laurence McKenna explore what sustainability looks like at the very top of the footballing pyramid.
How does a global institution like Liverpool FC translate climate action into a strategy that reaches millions of fans worldwide? We are joined by Rishi Jain, Director of Impact at Liverpool, to discuss the responsibilities and opportunities that come with elite-level sport. We take a deep dive into The Red Way, the club’s comprehensive framework for people, planet, and communities and how they are integrating sustainability into the heart of their operations.
Of course, no discussion with Liverpool around sustainability would be complete without a discussion about their famous the Office inspired 'Let's Save the Planet! Team Meeting' viral sketch.
In this episode, we cover:
- The Power of the Global Game: How a Premier League club leverages its platform to inspire fan action across the world.
- Inside The Red Way: The practicalities of managing environmental impact at an elite club, from stadium operations to global travel.
- Leading by Example: Why authenticity is key when a club of Liverpool's scale speaks out on the climate crisis and how 'that' famous Team Meeting became a viral sensation.
Plus: Legendary commentator Conor McNamara joins us for an update on the Pledgeball League table. There has been a seismic shift at the summit this week... tune in to hear if your club is part of the shake-up and how you can help them climb the standings.
