The Big Green Money Show

Listen Later

Deborah and Fliss look at the business of football and examine claims from the World Cup organisers that 2022 will see the first ever carbon neutral world cup.

They talk to the chairman of Forest Green Rovers which has been described as "the greenest club on the planet".

And back in 2019 Aston Villa came bottom of a table ranking the Premier League's clubs on their environmental promises. It was the catalyst for change and the club is now starting its journey to improve its eco credentials. Deborah and Fliss find out what's on the club's to-do list.

Plus they chat to the founder of Pledgeball which inspires fans to live greener lives.
