Alpine Ski Resorts Confront Challenges of Climate Change | WION GLOW
Alarming Season for Ski Resorts: Ski resorts in the Alps are facing one of their worst seasons, grappling with the combined challenges of climate change and financial difficulties.
Delayed Openings and Weather Impact: The warmest Autumn on record in the region forced many ski resorts to delay their opening times. Heavy rain and sleet further affected operations, leaving potential tourists disappointed.
Growing Threat of Closure: The threat of global warming is escalating, and industry experts warn that more ski resorts are at risk of closure. Some resorts have already faced delays until just days before Christmas.
Impact on Skiing Industry: Rising temperatures make it difficult for resorts to maintain sufficient snow levels. This leads to increased costs for artificial snow production or reduction in operating days, resulting in soaring skiing prices.
Environmental Concerns and Future Outlook: Experts highlight the environmental impact of large-scale snowmaking, emphasizing that it's not a sustainable solution. The future of skiing depends on global efforts to reduce emissions, with researchers stating that the death of skiing is inevitable without substantial climate action.
