#1 "Environmentalists" please - "Ecology" is a science (underdeveloped at present).

#2 It doesn't sound like they have much in the way of snowmaking equipment if you're a resort in mid-winter and only have 40% capacity.

And score another one for France for the completely useless position of Minister of Ecological Transition, whatever the hell that's supposed to mean.

"Ecology" is a science (underdeveloped at present).

#4 It's complicated. All those feedback loops and non-linear equations...

... Emergent behaviors resulting from the cumulative effects of independent, self regulating cycles...

Golly. Just like the climate.
