g word green my slopes video

Whether you ski or snowboard, hitting the slopes is a great way to enjoy the outdoors in the winter. The only problem is that ski resorts typically have a huge impact on the environment.

Fortunately, one resort, Aspen, is doing everything it can to make skiing a bit greener. In this video, G Word correspondent David Newsom tours the facility and learns how their green initiatives begin on the mountain but extend all the way to Washington.

From biodiesel vehicles to micro-hydro-electric power generators, there is a lot to see in this online video from G Word.
