‘Low Carbon’ Paris Olympics Get Worst Ratings Ever

The Paris Olympics have gotten off to a rocky start.

“The Olympics are being held in France, a country that prides itself on its gastronomy, but the diet for athletes is abysmal,” The Times reported on Feb. 26 (local time). ”There is a shortage of eggs, chicken and certain carbohydrates, and athletes are being served raw meat rather than cooked meat.”

The opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games will take place on Aug. 26 (local time) on the Seine River in Paris. The opening ceremony will be different from the opening ceremonies of previous Olympic Games. For the first time ever, the Opening Ceremony will be held “off-site” on the Seine.

A total of 15,000 athletes from 205 countries will parade through the iconic Parisian landmarks on more than 100 boats. The parade is expected to be 6 kilometers long.

The number of Korean athletes attending the opening ceremony is about 50. Woo Sang-hyuk of the men’s high jump and Kim Seo-young of the women’s swimming will be the 48th flag bearers.

However, even before the start, it has been pointed out that there are many problems with the Olympic preparations. Especially for the athletes, who have to focus on their competitions and not on the issues, the environment is so poor that they have difficulty managing their physical condition. The basic rituals are all talking. In particular, the ‘ceremonies’ are incomprehensible.

The organizers of the Paris Olympics, which aimed to be a green and low-carbon Olympics, have increased the number of vegetarian options on the athletes’ village cafeteria menu to reduce the “carbon footprint” of meat production. However, the 메이저사이트 reality is that vegetarianism alone is not enough to provide adequate nutrition for athletes who burn a lot of calories.

“Andy Anson, the chief executive of the British National Olympic Committee (NOC), has claimed that the diet at the local athletes’ village at the Paris Games is in serious need of improvement, with not enough eggs, chicken, certain carbohydrates, and other food quality issues, such as athletes being served raw meat,” The Times explained.

“According to CEO Anson, the athletes are not eating in the athletes’ village, but are traveling separately to the UK training center to eat. They’re not just training and eating, they’re staying in the village and bringing their own dinner because they know they won’t be able to eat there. The demand for food is much higher than expected.”

According to The Times, one British athlete, who asked not to be named, said: “It’s a big difference from the last time I was in Tokyo. “In the Paris Olympic Village, the cafeteria itself is a mess,” he said, adding, ”They’ve made the diet vegetarian, so you can’t even get a decent piece of chicken at mealtime.

“Other countries and other sports are also having trouble with the environment in the athletes’ village at the Games and often go to outside accommodation,” said Chung Chang-hoon, president of the Korean Swimming Federation, who decided to move to outside accommodation due to the sauna bus. ”The air conditioning is a problem, but the diet is also serious. At first, we provided lunch boxes to the athletes, but now we are providing them ourselves,” he said, complaining about the poor environment.
