Rode my bike to a meeting with @senwhitehouse and key players from the Utah snowsports industry to talk about how climate change is affecting us and what we are doing about it. (Managed to tame the helmet hair enough to enter the boardroom). We discussed some of the effects of climate change we are already seeing (lower snow totals, more snow falling as rain, increased avalanches) and the economic impacts, and how we can prepare for the future and encourage other businesses to enter the conversation. Senator Whitehouse will incorporate his experience from this Utah road trip into one of his weekly "Time to Wake Up" climate speeches that he gives to the Senate. I applaud his leadership efforts on this and want to give a shoutout to all the business representatives and individuals that showed up to today's meeting (including Nathan Rafferty from @skiutah, Bryn Carey @skibutlers, Ed Lewis @snocru, Onno Wieringa and Maura Olivos @altaskiarea and fellow athlete @brodyleven). The momentum continues to grow. #ActOnClimate @protectourwinters
