Sample answer
1 (Template):
Whereas the fundamental essence of
major athletic events
emphasizes the significance of
neutralizing the carbon footprint

a worldwide climate
network
such as
inspiring more global actions on the environment
and
a unique natural
setting
are acknowledged, and
an investment
could be inferred evidently from
improving
transport infrastructure
, which the potential implications of
offsetting greenhouse gas
