"Rio officials closed the green diving pool Friday morning after the water began to smell 'like a fart'"
Report: Rio officials close green diving pool after water begins to smell 'like a fart' - Business Insider
The most complete and simple explanation for this embarrassment of olympic proportions can be found in this article in which Mario Andrada (the chief spokesman for the Rio 2016 organizing committee) says "Chemistry is not an exact science". That's his exact quote; I didn't make that up!! As someone who works with chemistry every day, I can confirm that chemistry is an exact science. And as all we TFPers know, pool chemistry is definitely an exact science. Pools only turn green only when chlorine gets too low or when metals get too high. Sounds pretty "exact" to me!
Ha ha ha ha haApparently a quote from someone said this:
"We confirm that diving training in Maria Lenk Aquatics Centre pool is cancelled this morning. The reason is that the water must be still so the pool can return to it's blue color as soon as possible" - Phillip Wilkinson, Rio 2016 Spokesperson
Seriously? They must be getting pool store advice.
We are watching too! My 6 and 8 year olds were like "Ewww! Why are the diving in that?!" They are ready to go to Rio to help them take care of their pool! ?Womens diving on locally right now... that pool looks terrible! You can't even see the steps on the exit... blue by wednesday...smh

I also read that hydrogen peroxide was accidentally added. Would that really have this effect, if it was?
Is hydrogen peroxide even an accepted way to sanitize a pool? I have never heard of adding peroxide to a pool.
