The Aspen Skiing Company did well on the latest environmental report card from the Ski Area Citizens' Coalition. It's no surprise though, to Ski-Co workers like Auden Schendler. He's the Company's VP of Sustainability and he says employees are constantly cranking on various aspects of sustainability. Recently the Ski-Co added two LEED certified buildings and it cut its energy use by using renewable sources. There are plans in the future too to possibly build a small hydro electric project and the Company is looking at using gas from coal mines to generate electricity. Researchers behind the report card say the Aspen Skiing Company is a green leader for the industry but they add, more can be done to keep improving.
