TOLERANCE WAS ACHIEVED DESPITE FUROR. The Olympic Village has been a major topic leading up to the Paris Olympics. The apparent cramped conditions were one thing, but the restriction prohibiting air conditioning created another issue. The Paris 2024 organisers did not install air conditioning units in the village’s rooms. To lessen the warmth in the flats, a cooling system was installed that uses naturally cold water from 70 meters deep and circulates it through the building’s floors.
The decision is part of the organizing committee’s goal to cut the carbon footprint of the Paris Games by half and stage the most sustainable Olympics to date by installing a special technology to use natural sources to keep everyone cool even during a potential heat wave.
