Village athletes show they're keen to be green

French decathlon coach Sebastien Levicq looked serene as he skated around the village yesterday, in his recycled T-shirt, promoting sustainable fashion.

"I like skating because it's a cool, convenient, pollution-free way to travel," Levicq said.

Athletes from different parts of the world do their best to keep the 66-hectare Olympic Village - the largest in Olympic history - green.
