English to Japanese: The 2024 Olympic Games Could Be the First with Most of its Food Being Plant-Based
Source text - English
It has been reported that the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris will be the first where more than 60% of food offered has been described as plant-based. This will be to attempt to reduce the Game’s carbon footprint but also to accommodate many of the vegan athletes who will compete, and vegan spectators who will attend. To achieve this, 33% of the food in the Athletes’ Village restaurant will be plant-based, along with 60% of the snacking offer for the general public and 50% of the food for the workforce. Olympic Village eateries will offer vegan options, including quinoa salads and falafels. The organisers are aiming to reduce the overall carbon footprint of the event by 50%.		Translation - Japanese
2024年のパリ夏季オリンピックでは、提供される食事の60％以上が植物性（プラントベース）になると報告されています。大会が排出する二酸化炭素量を削減する試みとして、また、参加するヴィーガンアスリートや観客に対応するための措置として実施されるものです。目標達成に向けて、選手村にあるレストランでは、メニューの3分の１を植物性食品にするほか、一般客向けの軽食の60％、およびスタッフ用の食事の50％がプラントベースになる予定です。オリンピック村の飲食店には、キヌアサラダやファラフェルなどのヴィーガンアイテムが用意されます。主催者は、大会全体の二酸化炭素排出量の50％削減を目指しています。
