As part of a wide-ranging effort to make the Olympic Games more eco-friendly, Paris 2024 organizers said the Olympic village would be constructed without any air conditioning.
But as the Paris Games near, and fears of a summer heat wave linger, some countries have decided to bring their own air-conditioning units.
While the move appears to undercut organizers' sustainability efforts, it is a factor that could significantly impact athletes' performance at the Games.
