Real Betis Balompié and professional sports once again show their commitment against climate change with the staging - for the third consecutive season - of the Forever Green match, the match for LaLiga's sustainability. This season it will be Real Betis - UD Almería, a match of the 35th round of the First Division that will be played at the Benito Villamarín Stadium on Sunday, May 12.

This season, the theme of the Forever Green matches will be focused on the threat that drought represents to our planet, promoting the responsible use of water.

Focused on this theme, Real Betis will debut two sustainable kits: the pre-match shirt and the game kit.

As for the designs present on the Forever Green kits, they aim to raise awareness about the responsible use of water, reflecting the impact that climate change is having on our fields, punished by the worst drought in living memory.

In addition to this commemorative kit, as a symbol of the importance of caring for natural environments and reforestation, the footballers will jump onto the playing field of the Benito Villamarín Stadium, parading through a hallway formed by trees and accompanied by children who will carry photographs that will serve to raise awareness among fans about the effects of climate change.

Among other actions, sustainable transportation to the Stadium on match day will be promoted, offering promotional codes to fans so they can travel on scooters, motorcycles and electric bicycles with Voi, Lime and Acciona. In addition, leftover food from the different food stands at the Benito Villamarín Stadium will be reused, including it in the To Good To Go App.
