The International Olympic Committee has cited concerns over climate change for its wish to pick two Winter Olympics hosts next July

The IOC has declining options for Winter Games hosts with Bach suggesting only 15 national Olympic committees across three continents meet the criteria: that they have at least 80% of existing venues for snow sports and a “climate-reliable” outlook to host snow events in future decades.
