  • Sustainable Slopes for Ski Areas
    FOREWORD s a society, we find ourselves needing more than ever to escape every A day pressures by heading for the outdoors. With that increasing demand comes impacts and a number of emerging environmental concerns that must be addressed proactively.The ski industry adopted this Environmental Charter in 2000 as a framework for sustainability in our operations. We are revising it today to renew our commitment to responsible stewardship and fos- ter improved environmental performance industry-wide. The premier alpine recreation sites we have today were made possible through the vision, pioneering spirit and hard work of our industry’s founders. The value of those efforts holds today, as resorts are showcases of quality recreation opportunities for skiers, snowboarders, and countless summer guests as well. Although many forces may draw us to the slopes—the thrill and excitement of sliding down a mountain, the chance to reconnect with family and friends—we can never underestimate the value of the natural surroundings in renewing the human spirit.We respect the natural settings that we call home and hope that through our current efforts, we will preserve this same experience for future generations to enjoy. —Michael Berry, National Ski Areas Association President December 2005 1 INTRODUCTION marks the five-year anniversary for Sustainable Slopes and the first revision 2005 to the Environmental Charter. This revision ensures that our Principles are current and reflect the latest technology and best management practices to foster continuing improvement in environmental performance. It also acknowledges and incorporates emerging resources available from our Partnering Organizations as well as specific new ‘options for get- ting there’ from endorsing resorts.
