Protect Our Winters
Policy Initiatives
As part of our Forever Project and our journey to create a more sustainable tomorrow, Cypress Mountain has joined the Protect Our Winters Canada Resort Alliance. With sustainability as a priority for our resort, we are now also adding our voice to this growing movement, which is composed of businesses, professional athletes, and outdoor enthusiasts advocating for large-scale policy solutions to climate change.
Since its inception in 2018, POW Canada has focused on uniting and organizing the outdoor community to share a collective voice that drives climate action. We believe our love of adventure in nature demands our participation in the movement to save and protect it. You can also add your voice.
Through our own Forever Project, Cypress Mountain has been on a journey to create a more sustainable tomorrow. We have reduced our emissions by 19%.
Renewable Energy
We believe in transitioning to a clean, renewable energy economy to reduce––and eventually eliminate our reliance on fossil fuels.
Carbon Pricing
Carbon pricing incentivizes practices that reduce emissions, making fossil fuels more expensive and creating opportunities to use more clean energy sources.
Sustainable Finance
Sustainable finance and divestment move the investment of capital (money) out of fossil fuels and into the green technologies needed to tackle climate change and achieve Net Zero commitments.
Nature-Based Climate Solutions
It involves protecting, managing, and restoring forests, grasslands, agricultural lands, and wetlands to store carbon emissions and enhance biodiversity. They offer effective and cost-efficient methods to address the climate crisis.
