この論文は、スポーツイベントの炭素排出を評価し、持続可能性を考慮した開催地選定のためのフレームワークを提案する。排出は会場エネルギー、地上移動、航空排出の3カテゴリに分類され、特に気温25℃を基準とした冷却システムのモデルを導入。アメリカのスーパーボウルを事例に、最適な開催地としてイングルウッドとシアトルを特定し、公共交通機関の利用促進が排出削減に最も効果的と結論づけている。
English
This paper proposes a framework for evaluating and selecting host cities for mega sporting events based on carbon emissions. Emissions are categorized into venue energy, ground travel, and air travel, with a temperature-activated cooling model. Using the Super Bowl as a case study, Inglewood and Seattle are identified as best locations. The study finds that increasing vehicle occupancy rates via public transportation is the most effective reduction strategy.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本の文脈では、2020年東京オリンピックのような大規模イベントの脱炭素化が課題となっている。本フレームワークは日本国内のイベント計画に応用可能であり、特に公共交通機関の活用が重要な示唆を与える。ただし、日本の気候条件やグリッド排出係数に合わせた調整が必要となる。
In the global GX context
Globally, this paper contributes to the emerging field of sustainable event management and carbon accounting. It provides a transparent, data-driven method that could inform mega-event bids and align with ISSB/TCFD disclosure expectations for event-related emissions. The emphasis on public transportation resonates with urban decarbonization strategies.

🏢実務担当者:Event organizers can use this framework to evaluate host city options and prioritize public transport to reduce carbon footprint.
🏛政策担当者:Offers evidence for integrating carbon considerations into mega-event hosting criteria and transportation policies.
📄 Abstract（原文）
This paper explores the carbon emissions of sporting events, which although deliver significant economic value, emit notable amounts of carbon emissions mainly due to venue activities and spectators' travel. A framework for evaluating and optimizing the choice of cities to host major sporting events, with regard to sustainability concerns, is presented in this paper. This study total emissions into three main categories, namely venue energy use, ground travel emissions, and airline emissions. A key element in the model is a cooling system model that turns on air conditioning systems based on a temperature threshold of 25°C with regard to the local climate, scaled based on a ratio between local temperature intensity and average temperature intensity in North America. Emission calculations for ground and air travel are based on a population-to-distance effect matrix and national modal split assumptions for each city, respectively. The use of publicly available data sources such as energy intensity per source, grid carbon emissions factor, and historic weather conditions allows for the transparent calculation of emissions. Using the proposed approach for the case study of Super Bowl hosting, the best past and prospective locations are found to be Inglewood, California and Seattle, Washington. Finally, this paper concludes that the highest reduction in carbon emissions results from higher vehicle occupancy rates compared to increases in efficiency and use of renewable energies, that means the public transportation system is becoming more and more important in the future.
