Recycled bottle tops and tables made from shuttlecocks - the greenest Olympics?

Recycled bottle tops and tables made from shuttlecocks - the greenest Olympics?

The organising committee of Paris 2024 has vowed to make it the greenest Games in Olympic history, with half the carbon footprint of London 2012 and Rio 2016.
London 2012 had an estimated carbon footprint of 3.3m tonnes, while Rio 2016 had a total estimated footprint of 3.6m tonnes of carbon.
The 2024 Games will be held in the same city where world leaders met in 2015 to sign a number of commitments to prevent global temperatures rising by more than 1.5C and there will be lots of attention on sustainability efforts.
From tables made out of shuttlecocks to plant-based menus, Paris 2024 have announced a number of initiatives that they claim will help them reach their targets.
In an exclusive interview, Thomas Bach, president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), told BBC Sport that sustainability is an issue "very close" to his heart.
Bach said that climate change represents an "extremely serious threat, not only for sport, but for all our lives," adding, "this is why, with our Olympic agenda reforms, we undertook to tackle these issues by focusing on reducing our footprint."
Existing stadiums, not new buildings
Before London 2012, six new stadiums were built. Rio built 10 permanent new sites and seven temporary ones.
Of the 35 stadiums housing events at Paris 2024, only two will be new and purpose-built – an aquatics centre and an arena for badminton and rhythmic gymnastics.
The organisers claim these will be built using "low-carbon construction methods". The aquatic centre will include seats made from "recycled local plastic waste", with wood used throughout construction.
