Heavenly has long implemented a host of environmentally friendly business practices to protect and preserve the area's unique natural beauty. Their numerous programs include the following highlights:

  • In August of last year, the resort purchased 16 million kilowatt-hours of wind energy, offsetting 100 percent of its energy use for the 2006-07 season.
  • In addition, it has committed $1.8 million to treat water run off from the resort's parking lot to make it as clean as drinking water.
 

Our Partners Evironmental Achievements

Each member of Ski Lake Tahoe has its own list of improvements and changes they have made to increase their contribution to keeping Tahoe blue. One of the elements that attract people to Lake Tahoe is the awesome natural beauty and advocates are working hard to maintain that.

SkiGreenOne way the resorts do this is by participation in SkiGreenTM, a partnership with the Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF). A nonprofit organization, BEF is committed to providing access to renewable energy, expanding the use of solar and wind energy, and developing additional energy sources. By selling Green Tags at the ski resorts, they help encourage consumers to take direct action to support environmental efforts designed to save the planet.
