Another Word (or two) About Skiing

I am talking about the tens of thousands of cars, trucks, SUV's and numerous airplanes which carry the skiers from their homes to the mountains and back. In some places the traffic generated by these trips causes traffic jams miles and miles long.
The bottom line is that we are being forces to look at our lifestyles in all areas and reinvent how we can still have fun and do our work while generating a much smaller ecological footprint in the process.

Sustainable Sports ... Not!

These large homes with gas-guzzling SUV's parked in the driveway and snowmobiles in the garage, will become too costly for many owners as the price of oil (and everything else made with and from oil) continues to rise. On top of that, their distance from any services such a food shopping, car service and almost all forms of entertainment, makes their location a major challenge when resources become harder to get.
All of this impressed up me how important it will be for us to learn how to live and organize ourselve more sustainably in the coming years.
