Thredbo visitors need to think about climate change

Thredbo made news last week by becoming the first snow resort to have all its major operations powered by renewable energy. This weekend a huge storm system dubbed the "Polar Express" delivered 20 centimetres of snow to the alpine village on Saturday night.I grew up in Thredbo in the Kosciuszko National Park and I am back living here after some years away.

My parents experienced the winter of 1964 when 24 hours a day shovelling was required to keep the top station of the Crackenback Chair open, and everything else in the village from disappearing. It was the "winter of the shovel".Fast forward to this past summer in Thredbo, which was the hottest I can remember, with temperatures reaching 33 degrees.

With each passing year Thredbo and other ski resorts in Australia are becoming more reliant on snowmaking. When Prime Minister Scott Morrison, the former head of Tourism Australia, held up a lump of coal in parliament, it was a representation of the very thing that is trashing our natural assets and ruining Australia's attraction as a major tourism destination. Tackling climate change and switching to renewable energy as we have done at Thredbo is an investment in protecting these natural assets and jobs that depend on them.

RUBBISH YOU WE US CANT DO ONE THING ABOUT IT CHRIST EVEN A MONKEY CAN WORK THIS OUT AUSTRALIA TOTAL EMMISSIONS 1.3% AUSTRALIAN TOTAL POWER STATIONS 19 MEANWHILE THIS I KNOW LEFTIES ARE SHIT AT MATHS BUT TRY TO ADD THESE UP YOU IRRATIONAL FOOLS

😂

Record seasons in the last five years . Whatever , keep giving us your climate propaganda

Here we go 😂😂😂😂😂 please stop 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Oh for heavens sake. Enough already with trying to include climate change in every bloody sentence in your rag !

I thought according to climate change predict9 skiing is no longer possible in Australia. What happened to the predictions?

They'll achieve nothing for a non-existent crisis.

what a load of shit

Zzzzzzz

Record snowfalls in Australia Hmm.

Annalisa Koeman is the assistant manager of a Thredbo lodge and wants to shame her guests into being like her. That's why I'm spending 2 weeks skiing in Feb at Sun Peaks in Canada, flying business class. I'd fly first but wasn't available. Taking my own disposable plastic straws.

But but ……..🤷‍♂️

It is actually amazing how many different subjects you find to flog your propaganda. The obvious aim is to engage people from all walks of life for your propaganda. It will fail again because people 'from all walks of life' are getting aware of the scam that you are promoting.

'My parents experienced the winter of 1964 when 24 hours a day shovelling was required to keep the top station of the Crackenback Chair (now called Kosciuszko Express) open' --- how about the winter of 1965 (see attached)?

Ha ha.

Switch off the sun.

Hang on... I thought it was never going to snow there again.

FACTS, GET SOME...

Considering that Most Australians want climate action, and that the Most Australians ski our mountains, the 'skiers' you speak of that need to think of climate change most likely already are...a bit of a weird headline

The indoctrination of the gullible masses.

As the 13th man said, 'What if you're wrong?'. Your 'settled science' is far from settled, the drivers of change are from complete. The actual impact of humans is not quantified thoroughly. By all means CLEAN UP the environment, but do it sanely, whilst preserving Australia.

Yeah I’m sure a few rich people will make all the difference. Driving up in their SUVs 😂 There is no shield around us. Even if we could magically bring our emissions down to zero, it would only take two more months of Chinese emissions to cancel that reduction out. 👇👇👇👇

Take action, i love it. How about your climate change hippies start saying that big important answer!!!! How? How are you going to take action. Stop talking crack, tell us 'how' you are apparently going to stop climate change. How? How? How? Waiting for an answer

This was one of the reasons Utah (USA) took action
