Greenwashing Sport examines sport’s complicity with our environmental crisis, arguing that first, sport creates its own carbon footprint and second, it provides the gas and petroleum industries with social licenses to operate by accepting sponsorship that imbues corporations from these sectors with a pro-social image. Using Formula 1, FIFA Men’s World Cup, and the Olympics as case studies, Miller argues that oil companies make cynical use of sport as a means of ’greenwashing’ their public image, while also considering the work of activists who resist such complicity, such as progressive football fans and non-government organizations.
