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!

Don’t let environmental destroyer Woodside to exploit your team.
Yes, it is hypocritical to continue to develop more fossil fuel for future use (which will certainly cause more damage to our environment) and at the same time pretend to be a concerned and good entity promoting sports and entertainment for the public. Fossil fuels have in the past provided useful and beneficial sources of energy and products, but now we know that they are doing more damage than good.
Climate change is of vital importance and polluters should not be allowed to promote sport.
Woodside’s commitments to community organisations are Greenwashing. Woodside are Climate Criminals and have no investment in our future, they only care about extracting as much profit as they can and have little regard for the environment and the Climate Emergency upon us.
Follow the lead of tobacco advertising. Don’t let climate wrecking companies sponsor high profile sports.
Let’s find non toxic sponsorships
Sport is seen as healthy… makes sense to have’ clean ‘ sponsors!!
