  • Recently, the Paris 2024 Olympics announced the latest advancement in the games low carbon strategy. In addition to its ambition to reduce carbon emissions at the games, the organizing committee has developed a program to fund projects aimed at avoiding and capturing carbon emissions, with the aim of offsetting unavoidable emissions from this summer's sporting event.

    Among them, AMI Khanh Hoa solar power plant (Cam An Nam commune, Cam Lam district, Khanh Hoa province) is the only power generation plant in Vietnam selected to provide carbon credits for Paris 2024.

    In addition, the Paris 2024 Organizing Committee also funded the implementation of 9 projects (all near the equator, one of the regions most affected by climate change) to reduce emissions and carbon offset for the Olympics.That's making it easier to install tens of thousands of cooking systems and water supplies in Nigeria, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya and Rwanda; protecting thousands of hectares of forest from deforestation in Guatemala and Kenya, and restoring mangroves in Senegal.
