As the Tour de France begins, we’re on the start line with former England footballer Geoff Thomas, as he attempts to complete the exact course of cycling’s greatest competition, a week ahead of the race.

We’ll look at the environmental impact of the Olympic and Paralympic Games. We’ll hear from ‘ecoathletes’, one group of athletes who are at the forefront of bringing attention to climate change thought their sporting platform.

After Pele called for snooker to be included in the Olympics we speak with Igor Figueiredo, the only professional snooker player from Brazil.
