Some quotes from the Olympic Movement:
"Environmental work has an important role within the Olympic Movement. The first organizer to become involved in the environment from an Olympic Games perspective was the organizing committee in Lillehammer in 1994. The following year, in 1995, the International Olympic Committee created a special Sport and Environment Commission. Today the Commission is very active and the environment is a top priority in the review of Olympic candidate cities. We in the Olympic movement look forward to cooperating closely with ÅF and hope that, with ÅF’s help and through our Olympians, we will be able to sharpen our focus on environmental issues and link sport and the environment in an even broader perspective."
Gunilla Lindberg, Secretary General of the Swedish Olympic Committee (SOC) and a member of the International Olympic Committee.
"The cooperation between ÅF and SOC is innovative. For the first time we have secured an international cooperation agreement that means that ÅF becomes an Olympic partner not only in Sweden, but in many of the other countries where ÅF is operating. It opens the way for similar solutions with more internationalized Swedish companies. With ÅF as Green Advisor, SOC has a partner that will enable us to better assume our responsibility for sustainability issues."
Stefan Lindeberg, President of the Swedish Olympic Committee.
