Skiing & Climate: Panel discussion

Era

Moderated by Charlie Sanders, president of the North American Snowsports Journalists Association and ISHA Board member; with Chris Gloninger, meteorologist and climate educator; Wendolyn Holland, renewable energy consultant to the US Dept of Energy, and ISHA Board member; and Seth Masia, ISHA president and former executive director of the American Solar Energy Society.

Why do meteorologists and ski journalists avoid covering global warming as it affects winter sports? What has skiing, as a sport and business, done to protect itself against the loss of snowmaking weather and natural snowpack? How will a warming climate affect the sport and the business in the near future?
