Description: Pie charts showing how climate changes threatens conditions at venues of Olympic Winter Games Data source: Buchholz, Katharina, (4 February 2022). "Will Climate Change End The Winter Olympics?". Forbes. • Bucholz cites Scott, Daniel; Knowles, Natalie L. B.; Ma, Siyao; Rutty, Michelle; Steiger, Robert, (10 January 2022). "Climate change and the future of the Olympic Winter Games: athlete and coach perspectives". Current Issues in Tourism 26 (3): 480-495. DOI:10.1080/13683500.2021.2023480. Archive of Forbes article: https://web.archive.org/web/20230112112125/https://imageio.forbes.com/specials-images/imageserve/61fd4b7d3e65182bd9225516/20220204-ClimateChangeWinterOlympic-Forbes--1-/960x0.jpg?fit=bounds&format=jpg&width=960 Description of Forbes graphic: "Low/High emissions: Paris Agreement goals / current trajectory. Source: Current Issues in Tourism (2022) . . . This chart shows the share of Olympic Winter Games locations by reliability to ensure safe and fair snow sport conditions in February." Summary quote from Forbes source: "A scientific paper published this year in the journal Current Issues in Tourism shows that two thirds of all Winter Olympic venues could become unreliable for the use in international competitions between 2071 and 2100 if the world continued on its current emissions trajectory. If instead it stuck to the Paris Agreement emission goals, the share of unreliable venues would rise to 29% by that time, up from 19% that were already unreliable between 1981 and 2010." SVG code for the individual pie charts was automatically generated by five uses of the "pie charts" spreadsheet linked at RCraig09/Excel to XML for SVG. Various additions were made in a text editor. Coders: be aware: FYI, that for underscoring to render properly on Wikimedia and Wikipedia, the text-decoration="underline" attribute must be specified for each <text > recitation. (This issue was avoided by moving the text to a better location without trying to underscore in Version 4, so the issue is now moot for this particular image.) Minor note: my upload summary for Version 3 should have referred to the WP:SVG_help and en.WP and not to the Graphics Lab Illustration Workshop.
