A damned fine idea this one. Climate change will eventualy smother Ireland in another Ice Age, forcing us to make shoddy Olympic bids to make any money at all.
‘The world climate is changing and there is a distinct possibility that the climate in the west of Ireland is heading for a mini ice-age at some point in the not too distant future’
It is no good assuming it won’t happen, preparations need to begin now. To this end a dedicated band of volunteers intend to show how the west of Ireland could cope with the holding of the Winter Olympics at some time in the future. They will put together a bid to hold the Winter Olympics in 2026 and this should give adequate time for the building of the necessary infrastucture. Should the climatic changes not have materialised by this time the application can be held for a later date.
