Paris 2024 initially set a target equivalent to 1.58 million tonnes of carbon dioxide
Paris – This year's Paris Olympics will use renewable energy, serve lots of vegetarian meals and heavily restrict plastic bottles, but can an event involving so much construction and international travel ever be environmentally sustainable?
, but that ambition has been lowered to around 1.75 million tonnes. The only major new-build projects have been an aquatics centre, a mid-sized venue in Paris for the badminton and gymnastics, and the athletes' village in the deprived Paris suburb of Seine-Saint-Denis. Elsewhere, Coca-Cola -- a top Olympics sponsor -- has agreed to install 700 newly designed drink fountains at Olympic venues, meaning that around 50 percent of soft drinks will be served without a plastic bottle.
This target has also been revised down -- the Games now aim to be "carbon neutral" -- and a tender for an offsetting project in France was cancelled late last year for budget reasons, Grenon says.
