Going for Green! Jamie Carragher, Steve McManaman and Brentford's Ben Mee join 80 of the UK's top clubs in 'Green Football Weekend' as the sport fights back against climate change

More than 80 of the UK’s top clubs are joining forces to launch football’s biggest campaign against climate change.

Brentford defender Ben Mee and former professionals Jamie Carragher and Steve McManaman are among those involved in Green Football Weekend, which will culminate on February 3-5.

Over the next 20 days, teams will compete for the 'Green Football Cup', with fans encouraged to make climate-friendly decisions – such as eating a vegetarian meal, turning the heating down one degree or taking a shorter shower – to ‘score green goals’ for their club.
