How the Green Games influenced a national and international environmental movement.

In Episode 3 Mark Beretta and his guests reveal how Sydney Olympic Park was once a contaminated wasteland full of opportunity, that was developed into a world-class environmentally sustainable suburb with a ‘she’ll be right mate’ attitude. Romily Madew, CEO of Infrastructure Australia and former Green Building Council of Australia CEO joins Sydney Olympic Park Executive Director Planning Sally Hamilton to discuss the world class transformation, and how Australia’s attitude to innovation created precedents that would change environmental benchmarks nationally and internationally. Built on a beautiful blank canvass on the banks of the Parramatta River, the development of Sydney Olympic Park challenged designers and architects to protect the environment, establish green buildings and create parklands that would become significant environmental sites. Sydney Olympic Park became Australia’s first example of a green star precinct, creating the foundation of the nationally-accepted green star rating system.
