Our Environmental Commitment

We are committed to protecting the environment and leading the way on corporate responsibility and sustainability. Our goals in doing so are:

• To stay in business forever. We are a ski company - we need snow to stay viable.
• To be the best employer in the world by strengthening our community, both internally and externally.
• And to lead the business world as a sustainable, responsible brand

To accomplish these goals, our priorities and main areas of focus are:

• Climate Action – advocacy and operations
• Tolerance and Diversity – LGBTQ+, immigration, gender, race, etc.
• Social Justice – education, child care, poverty and health
• Engagement – stakeholder and civic engagement and communication (employees, guests, community)
  

We work on these areas internally, locally, and nationally through operations overhauls, advocacy, and philanthropy.

We were honored to host Bill Mckibben during the Aspen U Speaker Series on January 25, 2020. Bill McKibben broke the climate story with his book The End of Nature, in 1989, and has gone on to write two dozen more books while publishing in journals ranging from the New Yorker to Rolling Stone. With Middlebury students, he created the group 350.org. It is hard to overstate McKibben’s importance in the climate movement, but it’s also hard to overstate his humanity, which comes in the form of a wide-eyed fascination with the world and the people in it. So with his trip to Aspen we got to drink beer with this guy, listen and converse, and perhaps then to go forward to solve this big climate problem together.
