[@skatingcanuck9837]

That's not true. 60% of the food is vegetarian, but there are lots of carnivorous options. Traditional French food is far from vegan. FYI the theme is to make this the greenest games ever with a focus on a lower carbon footprint and sustainability.

I agree, man. I don't know what it is with Europe wanting to pretend it's 1900, and global warming has not signficantly raised temperatures there. I've been looking at the weather reports and I don't think the daytime high been under 26 C (80 F !) at any point in the past two weeks. And there's been or two days a week when it's over 30 C (86 F!!). It's not just France either, most European countries seem to want to pretend that's not hot over there. 60,000 died in 2003 from the heat and that didn't wake them up. Have to tell you, I will probably only visit in winter! Because they seem to agree that buildings need to be heated in winter, it's only summer when their brains malfunction and they think people are comfortable with an indoor temp north of 30 C (86 F). 🙂

THIS kind of thing should be avoided at all cost. The fact is that the richer nations can afford to mitigate these things (bring their own air or move them to hotels, provide food, etc.) while those on shoe-string budgets will have to allow their athletes to languish. Goes against everything the Games represent. These Olympics have NOT provided an even playing field.

Yeah, the British delegation had installed their own air conditioning in the British quarters in the Olympic Village prior to the Olympics and brought their own barista with them. But many countries can't afford that. ...but same goes for sports training facilities, coaches, equipment etc... so it's not like there was a level playing field to start with sports-wise...

The point is that, with the summer Olympics, Paris is hosting the world, so there is a bigger picture here. There are also the examples of the housing from prior summer Olympics to compare this against. The fact that so many athletes are leaving for hotels is a big deal.
