Until 1992, both the Summer and Winter Olympics were held in the same year. After that year, however, the IOC shifted the Winter Olympics to the even years between Summer Games to help space the planning of the two events from one another, and to improve the financial balance of the IOC, which receives a proportionally greater income in Olympic years. Since 1995, the IOC has worked to address environmental health concerns resulting from hosting the games. In 1995, IOC President Juan Antonio Samaranch stated, "the International Olympic Committee is resolved to ensure that the environment becomes the third dimension of the organization of the Olympic Games, the first and second being sport and culture."<a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a> Acting on this statement, in 1996 the IOC added the "environment" as a third pillar to its vision for the Olympic Games.<a href="#cite_note-6">[6]</a> In 2000, the "Green Olympics" effort was developed by the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Beijing Olympic Games.

Air quality improvement measures implemented by the Beijing government included replacing coal with natural gas, suspending construction, imposing strict dust control on construction sites, closing or relocating the polluting industrial plants, building long subway lines, using cleaner fluid in power plants, and reducing the activity by some of the polluting factories. There, levels of primary and secondary pollutants were reduced, and good air quality was recorded during the Beijing Olympics on most days.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Beijing also sprayed <a href="/wiki/Silver_iodide" title="Silver iodide">silver iodide</a> in the atmosphere to induce rain to remove existing pollutants from the air.<a href="#cite_note-43">[43]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Effects_on_soil">Effects on soil</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=International_Olympic_Committee&action=edit&section=22" title="Edit section: Effects on soil">edit</a>]</div> <a href="/wiki/Soil_contamination" title="Soil contamination">Soil contamination</a> can occur during construction. The Sydney Olympic Games of 2000 resulted in improving a highly contaminated area known as Homebush Bay. A pre-Games study reported soil metal concentrations high enough to potentially contaminate groundwater. A remediation strategy was developed. Contaminated soil was consolidated into four containment areas within the site, which left the remaining areas available for recreational use. The site contained waste materials that then no longer posed a threat to surrounding aquifers.<a href="#cite_note-44">[44]</a> In the 2006 Games in Torino, Italy, soil impacts were observed. Before the Games, researchers studied four areas that the Games would likely affect: a floodplain, a highway, the motorway connecting the city to Lyon, France, and a landfill. They analyzed the chemicals in these areas before and after the Games. Their findings revealed an increase in the number of metals in the topsoil post-Games, and indicated that soil was capable of buffering the effects of many but not all heavy metals. Mercury, lead, and arsenic may have been transferred into the food chain.<a href="#cite_note-45">[45]</a> One promise made to Londoners for the 2012 Olympic Games was that the Olympic Park would be a "blueprint for sustainable living." However, garden allotments were temporarily relocated due to the building of the Olympic stadium. The allotments were eventually returned. However, the <a href="/wiki/Soil_quality" title="Soil quality">soil quality</a> was damaged. Further, allotment residents were exposed to radioactive waste for five months prior to moving, during the excavation of the site for the Games. Other local residents, construction workers, and onsite archaeologists faced similar exposures and risks.<a href="#cite_note-46">[46]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Effects_on_water">Effects on water</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=International_Olympic_Committee&action=edit&section=23" title="Edit section: Effects on water">edit</a>]</div> The Olympic Games can affect water quality in several ways, including runoff and the transfer of polluting substances from the air to water sources through rainfall. Harmful particulates come from natural substances (such as plant matter crushed by higher volumes of pedestrian and vehicle traffic) and man-made substances (such as exhaust from vehicles or industry). Contaminants from these two categories elevate amounts of toxins in street dust. Street dust reaches water sources through runoff, facilitating the transfer of toxins to environments and communities that rely on these water sources.<a href="#cite_note-Qiao_Q_2011-39">[39]</a> In 2013, researchers in Beijing found a significant relationship between the amount of PM2.5 concentrations in the air and in rainfall. Studies showed that rainfall had transferred a large portion of these pollutants from the air to water sources. Notably, this cleared the air of such particulates, substantially improving air quality at the venues.<a href="#cite_note-47">[47]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2
