Stop Greenwashing Skiing: Norway Must Drop Equinor Sponsorship
As the world is gathered in Trondheim for the 2025 World Ski Championships, Norway stands at a crossroads. This event is more than a celebration of sport — it is a global stage where the country can either reinforce its role as Europe’s biggest fossil fuel producer or rise to the occasion and lead a just transition away from oil, gas and goal production.
Trondheim’s mayor has already recognized the need for change, calling for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty. Yet, instead of following the city’s leadership and using this moment to amplify bold climate solutions, championship organizers have given center stage to Equinor — Norway’s national oil giant and one of the world’s biggest climate polluters.
