Introduction<br />
Singapore, 2005. Olympics president Jacques Rogge is about to announce the<br />
location of the 2012 Games. He hesitates, then pronounces one word - “London”.<br />
You all know what happened next,<br />
but did you know Cardiff University<br />
had a hand in that historic decision?<br />
The London bid pledged to use the<br />
“eco-footprint” approach developed<br />

our Centre for Business, Relationships,<br />
Accountability, Sustainability and<br />
Society (BRASS). Dr Andrea Collins of<br />
BRASS then joined the carbon footprint<br />
