Woodside is among Australia’s largest polluting gas companies. Its plans to build the Scarborough Gas Project and Pluto extension would generate emissions over its lifetime equal to ten years of running all of the country’s coal-fired power stations combined!
No matter where it is burnt, the gas Woodside digs up is fuelling climate damage and destroying Australia’s precious places like the Great Barrier and Ningaloo Reefs, compromising the wishes of Traditional Owners and putting people’s health at risk.
How do they get away with it? Woodside, and other big polluters, are sponsoring and exploiting our favourite sports to buy a positive reputation.
When Woodside plasters its logo across the purple hearts of Fremantle Dockers players, it’s paying for the connection and loyalty we feel for sports, and marketing themselves as a community-oriented brand – all so that Woodside can keep polluting.
We need to stop Woodside from using sports sponsorships to wash away their dirty image. That’s why, we're calling on people, no matter what footy jumper you wear or if you don’t support any team, to sign this petition:
Our teams are not for sale. We urge the Board of Fremantle FC to immediately end its sponsorship deal with Woodside Energy to protect the people, places, and game we love.
We will be delivering the voice of the community and your messages to the board of the Fremantle Dockers Football Club. Sign now and share!

When did dirty fossil fuels do anything to improve the health of any Australian? Sports organisations such as Fremantle FC need to stop talking the talk about the benefits of sport to the health of people and walk the walk. That means walking, nay running, from all fossil fuel companies such as Woodside Energy. Is Fremantle FC serious about protecting people, places and the game Australians love.
Woodside is a company which has a lot of explaining to do. No thinking person or sports team should choose to accept their money…except perhaps for the ATO
Climate change will cause many wars. Fossil fuel executives are worse than war criminals. They’re climate criminals.
Would you accept sponsorship from Vladimir Putin?
Please consider a Sponsor who will look after Australia, and not be just there for the profits.
Thanks.
Please remember the harm they are doing to our future generations through pollution of our atmosphere.
Hey guys, it’s going to take ALL of us doing our bit to get rid of the big polluters. Please don’t sell yourselves short by taking ‘dirty’ money. You’ll gain the respect of the young people who are going to be badly affected in the future if we don’t stop the climate warming ASAP! Do it for your kids and their kids! Thanks.
When we banned smoking advertising it was still
up to the individual if they were polluting their bodies and their immediate atmosphere. With polluteing as companies, we’re all in the firing line, whether we choose or not!!!! Don’t give Woodside and their ilk the air time!
Let’s kick fossil fuel and gambling out of sport, just as we did with tobacco and alcohol!
