‘Capitalist logic of Olympics: Sponsored by fossil fuels while pledging sustainability’

As the 2026 Winter Olympics open competition, Oliver Farry welcomes Louis Moustakas, Head of Institute for Sport and Sustainable Development at the University of Applied Sciences. He explores the deeper implications at play across the sports world. While Olympic organisers tout existing venues, the sheer scale of the event requires mass travel. "It speaks to the broader capitalist logic of these sporting events," Mr. Moustakas explains, "sponsored by fossil fuels while pledging sustainability."
