2012 London Olympics Sustainability Report

Complete sustainability report of London 2012 has been recently issued. It comprises of detailed London 2012 programme for the year 2010. It also displays the sustainability considerations in varied areas. In the year 2007, plan has been published for the first time. Some of the major themes are discussed in the original plan, A Blueprint for Change.

The report states that Olympic Park will come to end on budget and on time. Olympic Delivery Authority, ODA has been created and designed all the venues and new infrastructure. It means that park is heading towards sustainable construction.
London 2012 is ready to deliver Low-carbon games, whereas LOCOG has effectively avoided 100, 000 tonnes of carbon emissions. LOCOG has worked closely with sponsors, licensees and supplier and placed everything on time.

CEO of LOCOG, Paul Deighton said, “I’m proud that sustainability is an important part of how we do business. The work that has been done on integrating sustainability into food, logistics, transport, ceremonies, technology and event management has uncovered opportunities that have not been realised before in an Olympic or Paralympic context. There is still much to be done, but we are well on track to achieve some fantastic results.”

ODA Chairman, John Armitt stated, “From the outset of the project, the Olympic Park has set new standards in sustainability, including the delivery of lightweight venues, the recycling or reuse of waste materials, using concrete with a high recycled content, and delivering materials by rail or water. We have achieved new standards for a project of this size and scale and have raised the bar for the industry.”
