Heavily Polluted Guanabara Bay To Be Site For Water Sports At Rio Summer Olympics

MAGE, BRAZIL - JANUARY 30: A man stands next to an abandoned building on a pier on Guanabara Bay on January 30, 2014 near Mage, Brazil. Communities ring Guanabara Bay and most have been negatively affected by human and industrial pollution. The iconic bay will be the site of sailing events during the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. Although Rio's Olympic bid included the promise to clean up the filthy bay, industrial and human pollution still remain a major problem. According to the Deputy State Secretary of Environment just 34 percent of Rio's sewage is treated while the remainder flows untreated into the waters. (Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images)
