the venues is described with the smallest carbon footprint of a main Olympic Stadium London 2012 Olympic organisers have published games first environmental report for next year so far.The report says that it is the aim to reduce the CO2 emissions by 100,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions in the procurement of materials and site construction.
Organizers say they are on the way to deliver world's first "truly sustainable" Olympic Games, the end of July 2012 is scheduled to open.
You plan to publish a further two reports in the next two years.
In the report, Introduction outlines the Organizing Committee of Chairman, Mr COE, what he felt were the innovative highlights of the London Games.
Before these games, no one had cleaned two million tons of contaminated soil on the ground said the former Olympic champion.
"No one attempted to calculate the full carbon footprint of a summer games, and no one built an 80,000 seat stadium as light in structure and effects on the environment such as ours."
David Stubbs, head of sustainability, the Committee said that the concept of sustainable development in the entire project is a crucial role."It is not only the stadium, it is the velodrome and other infrastructure that we are," he told BBC News.
"All places have history to tell a strong sustainability." "If you have the commitment at the beginning and it set an important part of how to obtain your contractors and designers who, and you in the short people with solutions come."
Thus explains the main stadium features a number of techniques, including recycled materials, was Mr Stubbs.
"Simply put, it is a light multi-purpose stadium and thus has a much smaller carbon footprint."
Go for green
The report focuses on the five main themes of the 2012 Games environmental strategy of: climate change; Biodiversity; Waste; Recording and healthy life.
Environmental concerns were not a problem for the games in 1948 Organizer"What we wanted to do was really understand to minimize the impact and then direct our efforts to them," he said.
"For example, had no one saw all embodied emissions in temporary building infrastructure, which would be used only during the games and Paralympic Games."
"By building, the more places, on what is rental on the market are, then it is possible to choose material that already exists."
As a result, he said, was lowered carbon emissions by 100,000 tonnes, the equivalent of 65,000 cars off the road for 12 months possible.
"I think this is a really important thing," he added.
As well said Mr Stubbs carbon emissions, the development of the main 250-hectare site to contain the aim of developing the largest urban park in Europe for more than 150 years.
He said that 45 acres "ecologically managed" space to promote and support to ensure biodiversity.
"This includes wetlands and river habitats, the country from what previously very loaded, was restored were", he said.
"This is not only good for biodiversity, but we have some 4,000 properties of man-in century flood danger River by re-profiling."
Another is the velodrome deliver huge carbon savings, says Mr Stubbs"Instead of straight straight-rivers, she opened out and were areas that may have a function in the flood relief in the wetlands."
However, he realized that not everything in accordance with the bid will be delivered documents, the International Olympic Committee in 2004.
For example, have plans to build a wind turbine, which was scrapped 20% of the site that would have made timely energy to the about.
"If we go back in time and write the bit about an ambitious carbon target the size of carbon footprint, we would not mean that we were in the process, use a certain technology."
"It was a mistake, in a way always to say that we blocked renewable energy."
"As the years have passed, has not taken the development of the market for renewable energy in urban areas."
But he added: as a whole the organizers had reached far more on cutting carbon emissions as was planned at the beginning.
"I think the environmental benefits of our approach is much greater than if we stuck, the very letter of engagement bid and done nothing else."
Former Chairman of the sustainable development Commission Jonathon Porritt, sustainability ambassadors for London 2012, said that good progress has been.
He observed "the report... speaks volumes about the nature and manner in which is translated in 2012 in action on the ground, the very high ambition level for truly sustainable games".
"It is still a long way to go, each is many things to the bear to bring, but previous progress is really impressive."
The Organizing Committee plan to publish two more reports. Next next spring should be published, and the final one are at the end of 2012 or early 2013.
