Challenge ahead
Winter sports need snow and climate change is making it a scarce resource. Warm winters and unreliable snow are already the new reality. Will skiing become a relic of the past? Ski resorts can improvise and adapt, but can they survive?
The sport itself is a cause of global warming. The international events, resorts, travel to the destinations, consumer behavior in the results and the manufacturing of specialized equipment all contribute to climate change.
The question is: How do we turn winter sports into a solution rather than a problem. To make the sport desirable for new enthusiasts and business partners.
The answer is: together.
