Vail and Windpower

[Angus]

this issue has been an ongoing discussion here on the board - here's an article from today's NYTimes. I think this is now free content.

kind of interesting approach - note Vail is not building wind generators but purchasing credits. The CEO of Vail pointed out their customers desire to be environmentally friendly - the power of consumerism I guess.

The credit system seems like a good ideea to me. I wonder if it'll catch on.

Good for Vail. I'm in favor of anything that cuts down on CO2 admissions.

As if I needed ANOTHER reason to go there......

Good going, Vail!
