"Super Bowl 2024: Streaming Options, Ad Costs, and Commercial Lineup"

The 2024 Super Bowl LVIII is set to kick off, featuring high-priced ads including those for electric vehicles (EVs) from automakers like BMW, Volkswagen, and Kia, with Door Dash offering a sweepstakes for the vehicles advertised. However, the event's environmental impact is a concern, as around 1000 jets are expected to emit significant greenhouse gases, prompting calls for more sustainable transportation options. The NFL has implemented sustainability measures through its NFL Green program, but there is still room for improvement in reducing emissions and waste.

"Paris Reopens Seine River for Swimmers After a Century"

Paris is preparing to bring back swimming events in the River Seine for the 2024 Olympic Games, after a ban of nearly 100 years due to pollution. The city has been working on a long-term plan to clean up the river, including disinfection units and improving water quality. While efforts have already shown positive results, some locals remain skeptical about the water's safety. From 2025, the public will have access to designated swimming areas along the Seine, with additional potential sites identified in the greater Paris region. The initiative is part of Paris' broader efforts to adapt to climate change and enhance biodiversity in the city.
