"Should ski resorts build new lifts or protect the environment?" In one of our closest ever polls, ifyouskiers voted to build rather than protect. With some really interesting opinions, this poll is worth checking out if you haven't already. Build: 214 votes (52%) Protect: 199 votes (48%) Here are a couple of choice comments: "Build, but build carefully. Draglifts are great for the snow but no use to walkers in the summer. Build more detachable chairs- they are faster and don't pollute the visual picture (park the chairs in the garage & a couple of wires don't upset the eyeline so much)" Submitted by : Need Snow Now "I think we're missing the point, here. The environmental threat is not some added lift pylons. The threat is far greater than that: climate change. The past five years have been the hottest humankind has known..."
