A message for skiers and boarders: global warming = less powder

Maybe the message that global warming will cause large-scale displacement of people in Bangladesh doesn’t really resonate with you.

Perhaps the fact that coral atolls in the Pacific — whole countries like Kiribati  and Tuvalu — are predicted to be completely consumed by sea level rise doesn’t really concern you.

But maybe this little fact about global warming will hit home with you: climate change = less power, a shorter ski season and fewer resorts.

That’ the hope of a Boulder-based group called Protect Our Winters, or POW, that’s hoping to motivate the winter sports community to do something about global warming.

Check out the video above to get a feel for their message, visit the group’s Web site, or read more about Protect Our Winter’s efforts at DailyCamera.com.
