Major wildfires ravaging Los Angeles raise concerns about the city's preparations for the 2028 Olympics and other major sporting events. The disaster coincides with a massive rebuilding effort, casting a shadow on the previously touted sustainability and fiscal responsibility of the Games.
La devastación causada por los mortales incendios forestales que asolaron la zona de Los Ángeles dejaron una huella indeleble en el paisaje y el estado de ánimo de la región. La preparación para que la ciudad sea la sede de los Juegos Olímpicos y Paralímpicos de verano en 2028, además de los partidos de la Copa del Mundo de fútbol en 2026 y un Super Bowl en el 2027, coincidirá con una masiva reconstrucción de viviendas e infraestructura.
Beijing procedió con los Juegos Olímpicos de Invierno de 2022 bajo estrictas restricciones pandémicas con muy pocos espectadores. “Algo como los incendios forestales realmente puede cambiar las prioridades de muchas ciudades en esa región y potencialmente del gobierno estatal y federal y lo que financian y cuándo quieren financiarlo”, dijo Brown.
