PROTECT OUR PLANET
BE THE MENTAL IN ENVIRONMENTAL
GIVING BACK TO OUR MOUNTAIN
Naturally, establishing a ski resort in the middle of the mountains has a huge environmental impact. This means that every local business and holiday maker passing through has a duty to try harder. We applaud recent incentives like investment in solar power to run the lifts and hydro power to provide electricity to local villages, but we can all be better. See how we’re trying.
Where possible we want to lower our carbon emissions at all levels. Being based in Meribel, we ask our clients from neighbouring valleys to push back the normal 9am start time to 9.30am, so that we can use the public transport already available to get to you, and reduce cars on the road. Don’t worry early birds, if this option doesn’t suit you we have a hybrid vehicle that can get us from A to B.
For every hour you book with us, we will plant one tree on your groups behalf with Tree's for the Future. This means one tree, every hour, per group. If you book us for one week, that means approximately 48 tree's planted - just because of riding with us. We pledge to plant at a minimum 1,764 tree's this season.
We have chosen to donate 3% of our earnings to Protect Our Winters (POW) for the season 22/23', chosen because of their incredible role in protecting our mountains in the climate fight in Europe. At the end of the season, with your consent we’ll be writing a newsletter thanking each of our clients and business partners for being part of this contribution.
OUR GREEN FRIENDS

Over the last 7 years they've contributed to over 250,000,000 tree's planted. We want that number to keep growing.

We have chosen to donate 3% of our seasonable earnings to Protect our Winters. They are more than just a fresh energy to the climate movement in Europe. They give a platform for sports enthusiasts and businesses to protect the places and lifestyles they love from climate change. We couldn't agree with their mantra more - we really do need all winter.
EARNT
EARNT offers people unique access to things they truly desire (limited edition products, experiences, VIP status) after they show some love and put some energy back into things that are good for society or the planet. You want the access to something cool and special; then EARN it. We like their view of the world - which is why we are extra happy to be chosen as one of their very first partners.
Burton
We have chosen to use market-leaders Burton as our uniform providers because of their proven durability and their company values. Using sustainably resourced materials and giving back as much as they take, Burton are an icon when it comes to environmental friendliness. We still are aware that even the production of these materials is damaging, but that’s why you’ll see us wearing this same uniform for many years to come.
Verbier Green
