Join ski areas in the fight against climate change - support the use of clean, renewable energy with Green Tags.
SkiGreen is a partnership between the Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF) and leaders in the winter sports industry to build support for non-polluting renewable sources of energy (such as wind and solar energy).
Ski areas depend on a reliable snow-pack to provide their guests with a high quality winter-sports experience. But air pollution from greenhouse gases - primarily from burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas - is causing unseasonably warmer temperatures, reduction in snow-pack levels and ultimately lower quality ski conditions over fewer ski days.
Each of the ski areas featured on this site have made a visible commitment to support renewable energy and many also encourage their guests to support renewable energy through sales of SkiGreen Tags for purchase along with season passes and lift tickets.
When guests SkiGreen, they reduce the impacts caused by their own activities, such as the air pollution produced by driving to their favorite ski area.
As with all of BEF’s Green Tags programs, the revenues generated from these sales go to supporting our mission to transform the energy system. SkiGreen is “greening” the grid one skier at a time.
