　 Just like the planners for the Beijing Olympics in 2008, the planners for the London Olympics in 2012 are making sure that the Games will benefit the people of their city. London is planning to hold the most environment friendly Olympic Games ever. For example, a wind turbine（涡轮机）is going to be built to the north of the Olympic Park. The Olympic Delivery Authority（ODA）plan to use it after the Games to deliver（传送）energy to homes and business in the local area for at least 20 years. The ODA is also hoping to use other ‘green’ energy sources. Solar energy from the summer sun and hydro（水的）power from the River Thames are also possible future energy for this part of the capital.

　 London also plans to provide a clean modern transport system for the Game. A train called Javelin (which will ravel at up to 225 km per hour) is going to link the Olympic Park with central London in just seven minutes. It will deliver 240,000 passengers an hour to the Park with a train arriving every 15 seconds. In this way planners hope to reduce the need for planes, cars and buses and therefore make London greener in 2012.

　 The organizers hope to use the new Channel Tunnel Rail Link to bring even more people to the Games. Eurostar trains between London and Paris and between London and Brussels will be often and these high-speed trains are going to reduce the number of flights from Europe needed to deliver the sportsmen and audience to London.
