people like you and the others chiming in to agree with you need to get a grip trust fools to pile in and go "well akshully the olympics are not environmentally friendly because they fly people in from all over the world" bla bla ok like no one is dumb enough to think the olympics are environmentally friendly the point is can the host location inspire and serve as not only a vision but actual demonstrated, already existing, already implemented and smooth running proof that cities can function better and be more environmentally friendly for the actual inhabitants who already live and will continue to live there after the olympics the Paris olympics were very successful on any metric, including how well they showcased the ability to move hundreds of thousands of people through urban spaces where cars have been relegated to undesired intruder status Paris has made extremely impressive progress especially for people on foot and bike in a very short amount of time (and they're permanent, not just temporary for the olympics) this should be well deservedly recognized and celebrated
