Expedition on Carson Pass Part of Global Events Highlighting Climate Change Impacts on Snow & Ice (PDF File)
Sierra Nevada Alliance
On Thursday, January 5th, the Sierra Nevada Alliance led an expedition to a snow monitoring site on Carson Pass, highlighting the affects of climate change on California’s water supply and snow melt as part of a global effort organized by The Climate Reality Project. The Sierra Nevada mountain range is one of eight places around the world that The Climate Reality Project selected to highlight due to the region’s importance to California’s economy, the eighth largest in the world. Climate change will inflict significant environmental and economic losses on the state as the natural reservoir that is the Sierra decreases and becomes more unpredictable.

2010/2011 Ski Area Scorecard: Green Practices Thrive at Ski Areas During Recession (PDF File)
Sierra Nevada Alliance
Ski resorts in California and across the west improved environmental ratings for the fourth year in a row during the recession according to the 2010/2011 Ski Area Environmental Report Card, released each year by the Ski Area Citizens Coalition. The 82 ski resorts scattered throughout the West saw an average improvement of 2% in their overall scores, while California ski resorts saw an improvement of 1.8% over 2009 and 6.6% from 2008. Rating improvement trends resulted from resorts investing in water and energy efficiency projects and for not proposing or implementing terrain expansions into sensitive lands.

2009-2010 Ski Area Citizens' Environmental Report Card (PDF File)
Sierra Nevada Alliance
The Sierra Nevada Alliance is a member of the Ski Area Citizens’ Coalition. The Ski Area Citizens' Coalition works to ensure that ski area management decisions, either by the Forest Service, the ski companies, or local goverments, are responsive to the needs of real environmental protection, local communities, and the skiing public. The Ski Area Environmental Scorecard is the only non-industry, independent mechanism that gives skiers and boarders a way to assess the environmental performance of their favorite resorts. By choosing environmentally friendly ski areas, you can encourage all resorts to improve their policies.
