The Cloud Asian Games Village Low Carbon Account is the first low-carbon account in the history of the Asian Games, jointly created by the Hangzhou Asian Games Village Operation Management Center, Alibaba Group, and Alibaba Cloud Intelligent Group, official partners of the Hangzhou Asian Games. It is based on Alibaba Cloud's AI algorithm capabilities, dual carbon products, and other capabilities. Through fun interactions, it promotes and advocates low-carbon lifestyles to villagers, enriching the village's living experience.

The "villagers" of the Asian Games Village can accumulate low carbon points by practicing 19 green activities in the Asian Games Village, such as Clean Your Plate Campaign, plastic free shopping, green cycling, empty bottle recycling, and participating in waste free life experience.

Low carbon points can be used to exchange for green goods from merchants in low-carbon accounts, such as low-carbon mascots made of environmentally friendly materials, eco-friendly bags made from recycled waste materials, and paper watches made of DuPont paper. In this process, low-carbon accounts collaborated with Asian Games sponsored enterprises or Asian Games Village service units such as Pacific Insurance, Wahaha, fluorite, Yili, Yutianchuan, State Grid, etc. to jointly create a green platform for the Asian Games Village.

According to Xie Long, the general manager of Alibaba Group's Olympic and Asian Games business, since the pre launch on September 12th, more than 15000 new users have been registered for low-carbon accounts in the Cloud Asian Games Village, with a total of over 640000 participants and a cumulative carbon reduction of over 15 tons. The carbon footprint of items identified through Alibaba Cloud Energy Treasure AI has exceeded 76000 times, with an average of over 4000 active users per day and an average of 26000 participants in low-carbon activities per day. Among them, carbon reduction activities such as Clean Your Plate Campaign, plastic free shopping, green cycling and empty bottle recycling have totaled more than 160000 times, writing the story of the green Asian Games.

In order to make it more convenient and interesting for athletes to stay at home, a low-carbon account for the Cloud Asian Games Village has emerged. This not only enriches the lives of villagers in the village, but also makes the green Asian Games more tangible, visible, and feasible on the participating side. He wishes all athletes, when they triumph, to bring the concept of green and waste free back to their hometown and work together to build a green home.

Huo Zhenting believes that the Asian Games not only pursue sports competition, but also pay attention to environmental protection. The low-carbon account of the Cloud Asian Games Village is a pioneering achievement of the Hangzhou Asian Games, showcasing the concept and practice of China's green hosting, and he is proud of it. At the same time, he is also pleased with the active participation of Hong Kong athletes in low-carbon accounts.

The head of the Singapore delegation, Xu Dekun, stated that living in the Hangzhou Asian Games Village is refreshing. Many online intelligent applications make life in the village more convenient, and even green carbon reduction can be done online, which is both meaningful and easy.

A low-carbon account is fun and interesting, and it's easy to complete in daily life. You can earn points to exchange for low-carbon gifts, and it also protects the environment. "said Shania May Mendoza, an athlete representative from the Philippines. Her low-carbon account at the Asian Games Village earned over 2000 points and redeemed many eco-friendly mouse pads, These mouse pads made from recycled plastic waste from the Asian Games Village are very environmentally friendly, practical, and beautiful. I plan to bring these mouse pads back to my country and give them to my friends
