Climate Crisis Threatens Ski Industry's Future
기후 위기로 위태로운 스키 산업의 미래
A new study warns that the era of reliable snowfall at ski resorts is waning due to the climate crisis.The US ski industry has already lost over $5 billion in the past two decades due to dwindling snowfall, shortening the average ski season.This trend is attributed to warming temperatures, which are causing precipitation to increasingly fall as rain rather than snow.
Experts emphasized that climate change is now a pressing reality for the ski industry, with unusually warm winters affecting resorts worldwide.Ski resorts across Europe and the western US have experienced diminished snowpack, leading to resort closures.The study projects further reductions in ski seasons, with up to 33 fewer days of ski conditions expected by the 2050s.
The findings underscore the urgent need for global action to curb emissions.Without substatial efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the future of the ski industry looks increasingly precarious.This holds potentially devastating consequences for both winter sports enthusiasts and the communities that rely on ski tourism.
