The Ski Industry's Uncertain Future - Porter Fox

Earth's rising temperatures can mean many things: hotter summers, less precipitation in some places and way more in others. But to an industry that relies on cold winters with lots of snow, the ski and snowboard industry could be some of the biggest losers of the warming. POWDER magazine editor, Porter Fox, writes about how we're losing days of skiing on either end of the season, which hurt the ski mountains' profitability, and what they are (and are not) doing to try to make skiing a greener industry. His new book Deep: The Story of Skiing and the Future of Snow is available now.
