The Olympics have recently been the center of the conversation about the relationship between sports and climate change for both its role as an emitter and as a victim of climate change. Before being rescheduled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Tokyo 2020 summer Olympics had announced plans to reduce its emissions as a result of growing pressure from spectators and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for host cities to incorporate sustainability plans. They included requiring 60 percent of all facility use to be from pre-existing buildings, powering the games and operations with renewable energy, and enacting a carbon offset program. The IOC has announced that climate change is now an underlying factor for host city selection, which will encourage potential host cities to adopt ambitious sustainability initiatives and innovative ways to reduce the emissions caused by the Olympics. These are important steps but there is still a long way to go to ensure both the summer and winter Olympics will be safe and sustainable in the future.
