We have noted previously that skiing or boarding is not the greenest of sports, but it is one most concerned about global warming. Fast Company magazine has compiled a list of the 10 greenest ski resorts including usual suspects like Aspen but also others like Kaprun, Austria (renewable energy powers its cableways, free bus service to the hills) and Park City (wind power, the second largest public transit system in the State) Most of the ten are converting to green power or buying offsets, but we love the transit idea. Now if they will only bring back the ski trains that used to bring people from the city right to the slopes.::Fast Company
