Cristiano Ronaldo’s new oil funded contract is reportedly worth $675m 😳
While the Loss and Damage Fund to help poorer countries harmed by climate disasters has received contributions totalling $358m 😕
That’s around 0.1% of the $300 billion estimated annual cost of disaster related losses 😬

From heat to storms, extreme weather has marked this tournament ⚽️
Today, one game was suspended for lightning while the other played out in 40 degrees 😬
FIFA cannot run from reality. Safe conditions for their major comps are getting rarer 📉
And promoting polluters is part of this problem 🤦
