Norway midfielder on how the Guardian inspired him to become a climate activist and what players can do to save the planet
“I was living on my own for the first time and had a lot of time to read,” says the Sampdoria and Norway midfielder Morten Thorsby, explaining how he went from caring about the environment to becoming a climate emergency activist during his time at Heerenveen.
One campaign in particular made him sit up and take notice, the Guardian’s Keep it in the ground forcing him to have a serious discussion with himself and what he was doing.
