Why I'm skiing so much...

With a world's population going on to 8 billion and with it, more and more pollution, greenhouse gas, plus unavoidable ecological catastrophe that we don't even imagine yet, the heat is on, the weather is upside-down and our snow is becoming an endanger specie.
Our winter seasons are getting shorter, our snow cover is becoming more and more elusive and glaciers are vanishing. At the same time, I'm not getting any younger and I have some serious doubts that I will be much nimble slaloming through an aspen grove 30 years from now...

These facts alone are enough of a motivating factor to make me ski as much as possible while I still can and while there's still some snow to practice on. Now you understand!
