On February 4, 2022, the 24th Winter Olympic Games will be held in Beijing. At that time, the eyes of the world will once again turn to the world's first "Double Olympic City" - Beijing.

With the Winter Olympic Games approaching, all preparations have been made for the venues. Bocog attaches great importance to the low-carbon and environmental protection management of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games. It not only adopts low-carbon design in the infrastructure of venues and venues, but also embodies environmental protection in tableware and clothing, which reflects the concept of green Olympics everywhere.

Green design and construction techniques are adopted for the Winter Olympic Stadium

According to the introduction, all the new venues for the Winter Olympics and Paralympics have adopted high standards of green design and construction technology, and adhere to the principle of "building energy saving, building land saving, building water saving, building materials saving, and protecting the environment" in the construction of the venues. All the new venues have obtained the green building design logo of three stars.

Among them, the National Speed Skating Stadium is the world's first winter Olympic speed skating stadium that uses carbon dioxide transcritical direct evaporation refrigeration. This technology is the most environmentally friendly ice making technology in the world at present, with carbon emissions approaching zero.

The national Bobsled Center is the first track in the world to be covered with a sunshade. The sunshade can effectively reduce the influence of climate factors on the ice surface and thus minimize the energy consumption of the track.

In the construction of the National Alpine Skiing Center, topsoil stripping and recycling technology is adopted to reduce soil erosion in the competition area, minimize the introduction of guest soil into the competition area, protect the original seed bank and reduce the probability of alien species invasion.

Clean energy for the Winter Olympics

The "low-carbon Block" clean energy project of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics and Paralympics Culture Square has been put into use after a trial operation.

The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics and Paralympics Culture Square, located in Shijingshan District of Beijing, is China's first Community square for the Winter Olympics. The equipment in the square is based on "smart community + clean energy". Through artificial intelligence, clean energy application, Internet of things, 5G and other smart technologies, the low-carbon plaza of "distributed photovoltaic + energy storage" has been realized.

The person in charge of the clean energy project of the Winter Olympic Cultural Square said that the concept of green environmental protection has been implanted into the daily life of residents, and we have built photovoltaic, smart walking path, smart street lamps, bicycles, smart garbage recycling boxes, etc. Let the common people leisure at the same time in the Winter Olympic Culture square can also experience the green, environmental protection, low carbon concept.

In the future, Beijing Winter Olympics Cultural Square will connect various smart terminal devices and build a "green and low-carbon smart community cloud platform".

Sinopec, Anhui Fengyuan Biodegradable plastics

The BoCOG has also actively introduced high-quality biodegradable materials as an effective means of low-carbon and environmental protection for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games, which also contributes to the development of the biodegradable industry in the market.

In September, a subsidiary of Sinopec donated 100,000 biodegradable plastic bags to Zhangshanying town, the site of the Yanqing area of The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, mainly for venue services and residents' daily needs, a move to help reduce "white pollution" during the games.

According to reports, the donated degradable plastic bags are made of PBAT biodegradable plastic as raw materials. With better thermal stability, mechanical properties, made of plastic bags more durable; At the same time, it also has excellent biodegradability and can be completely degraded into water and carbon dioxide under the condition of composting. It is the mainstream biodegradable material in the current biodegradable market.

Anhui BbCA Bio-Chemical Co., LTD., the official supplier of biodegradable tableware for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics and Paralympics, is currently speeding up production of biodegradable tableware made from the biomaterial poly (lactic acid). Biodegradable tableware is being produced at BbCA Bio-industrial Base in Guzhen Economic Development Zone, Bengbu City, Anhui Province, as the countdown to the Beijing Winter Olympics begins.

After raw material testing, polylactic acid production and processing, meal box production, Anhui BbCA corn and other raw materials processing into biodegradable disposable meal box. According to introducing, this kind can degrade tableware, in use and biodegrade process, do not contain small plastic granule, do not produce poisonous and harmful material, healthy environmental protection.

Coca Cola China multi-links, multi-scenes to help the Winter Olympics

In November, Coca-Cola China announced that it would provide "warm packs" for waste removal teams at all venues of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, using a work suit made from rPET (recycled beverage bottles). Coca-Cola China said it hopes to raise public awareness of the concept of recycling through the initiative.

The outerwear design of the waste removal team of the Winter Olympic Venues draws on the detachable function of outdoor emergency jackets, and is matched with a detachable cold-proof coat and trousers to meet the operational requirements under the great temperature difference. The outerwear fabric is made of rPET material, which has good waterproof and anti-fouling effect. Scarf, head cover and gloves are soft and skin friendly with good air permeability.

In addition, the design team adopted a dark stain resistant design for the collar, cuffs, hem and other dirty areas.

It is worth mentioning that Coca-Cola China will "back" elements into the design of work suit. Also in the new packaging Coca-Cola incorporated the "Recycle me" sustainable environmental logo.

In addition, the Winter Olympics venues placed beverage bottle recycling barrels, convenient consumers will be consumed after the beverage bottles.

Coca Cola China will demonstrate the recycling value of beverage bottles through multi-link and multi-scene approach to enhance public awareness of sustainable packaging.
