Ski pass contest
I carpool up to the slopes and help clean the mountains in the summer.

I Ski Green
1. by driving my diesel Jetta using 100% biodiesel made from recycled cooking oil. (I use an anti-gel additive rather than splashmixing petro-diesel for the cold temperatures.)
2. by bringing food and water in reusable containers and creating no waste while skiing
3. by choosing ski resorts that use alternative energy sources, recycle and offer carbon offset coupons
4. by using older, pre-owned skis, poles and boots and keeping them in tune myself
5. by talking to friends and family about the importance of skiing green
6. and by using hats and scarves I knitted myself.
How to go Green
We carpool with the neighborhood kids, thus saving gas as we have a hybrid. They all trade equipment saving the plastic and our family buys eco ski clothes. We also volunteer to clean up the ski area in the fall.
How I SkiGreen…
I rent a compact or economy car instead of a 4×4 at the airport to drive the the resort.
