These trends will shape not only future sports events but also the global sustainable development agenda. As Pierre de Coubertin, the father of the modern Olympics, once said, “The Olympic Games are a pilgrimage to the past and an act of faith in the future.” #Paris2024 #Olympics #ParisOlympics #Sustainability #GreenOlympics #CleanEnergy #TechInSports #EcoFriendly #Innovation #CulturalDiversity #GenderEquality #AIinSports #5GTech #SmartOlympics #RenewableEnergy #CarbonNeutral #DigitalTransformation #SportsTech #EcoSustainability #GlobalCooperation

Captivated by the adorable Olympic mascots, #Cameron and #Clarisse eagerly mark the calendar for their favourite fencing games (a “sport” they have been “practicing” frantically at the battlefield I fondly call - home) at the #Paris2024 #Olympics starting in two days. I am equally excited — not just for the athletic feats and the number of medals Team #HongKong will win, but also for the technology transforming the experience for everyone involved. 🦾 ✨ This year's #Paris Olympics comes with green 🌱 ambitions as the world moves toward embracing sustainable living in the face of climate change. With over 2,650 electrified and hydrogen-powered vehicles, along with 700 electric last-mile mobility options, the city is certainly set for greener travel. With just a few taps on your mobile, you can access micro-mobility solutions, including personal battery electric vehicles and wheelchair e-pullers shuttling around the arenas and Olympic village. These innovations ensure fair access and maximise efficiency, catering to last-mile service and accessibility needs in a smarter way. And let’s not forget the long awaited #AirTaxis, soon to be flying over the Seine from a new vertiport. This trial will provide a springboard for the industry, and I certainly cannot wait for the day when magic carpet could carry me to my office! These advancements are driving us towards a more sustainable future, redefining the Olympic spirit by pushing boundaries beyond athletics to embrace sustainability and innovation.

🌍 With the Paris Olympics in full swing, it's time we ask a crucial question: Are these massive events worth it while our world is burning? 🔥 🏟️ How many stadiums will be built, only to be abandoned the next year? 🔨 How many venues will be demolished soon after? ✈️ How many people will fly across the globe to watch their favorite athletes compete? The Olympics are a beacon of global unity and athletic excellence, but can't we make them greener? 🌱 For starters, how about utilizing existing venues and accommodations? Year after year, we hear promises about the "most sustainable Olympics ever." Yet, there's still a significant journey ahead. 🚀 Did Paris set a different example than some of the unfortunate precedents of previous host cities? Striking a balance between grandeur and sustainability is not just a necessity; it’s a responsibility. via Sustainable Design Network #Sustainability #Olympics2024 #GreenFuture #EnvironmentalImpact #Innovation #ParisOlympics #GlobalUnity

The #Paris 2024 Olympics set a high bar for sustainability with reduced carbon footprints, green energy and community engagement.
