Green Ski Resort in Alaska?

Alyeska Resort announced last week that it was offsetting the carbon footprint of 100 percent of the energy used by its Tram by purchasing 403,200 kilowatt-hours of annual renewable energy over the next ten years. The Alaskan ski and snowboard resort purchased the carbon footprint offset through a partnership with Denali Green Tag's Tour Green Program and Bonneville Environmental Foundation's (BEF) SkiGreen program that provides clean energy options throughout the State of Alaska.

Denali Green tags, also called renewable energy credits, offset the global warming pollution impacts on conventional electricity generation, air and ground travel. Green Tags are created when renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, are substituted for energy traditionally generated by burning fossil fuels, such as coal and natural gas.
