According to the International Olympic Committee, Paris 2024 aims to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of previous Olympic Games and promote sustainability through energy conservation and innovation. The bid for hosting the Games was centered around social, economic, and environmental sustainability, with a focus on reducing emissions and implementing responsible practices. Paris 2024's director of environmental excellence, Georgina Grenon, states that the goal is to have a 'climate positive' Games with half the emissions. The Games Environmental Transformation Committee will oversee this effort, which involves the use of renewable electricity, sensible construction, and promoting soft mobility. The Paris Olympics is also exploring ways to keep athletes cool without using air conditioners, setting new sustainability standards for major sporting events.
