Waiting for the Snow to Fall Analysis Section

I have been feeling for a while now, but trying to ignore, that ski resorts are kind of hypocritical. People go to them to enjoy the great out doors, but a ski resort by nature is destructive to the environment. The land has to be developed to even have a ski resort. Although some ski resorts use alternative cleaner energies, many do not. People don't want to have to work for that awesome run when they could much more easily ride the ski lift. We live in this society where people want things for free, and at first it can seem like some strategies make things come easier, and they do for a little while, but eventually you do have to pay up. Sometimes it's hard to see, but there is always some sort of price.

Whenever I read about sacred sites needing to be protected I completely agreed, but I feel like people need to see more places as sacred than the ones that for some reason have become known as sacred. Just as we value all people we must value all life and all forms. Every life form is sacred, not just the San Francisco Peaks. I mean that would be a lot more complicated to enforce in our current society, but it is a view that more people need to take on.

It is super lame that all of the organizations that are supposed to protect the environment do the opposite. I guess that's what happens in a capitalist society, or maybe its a conspiracy... or both... who knows. The only way to beat it is from the people though. People have to stand up for what they believe in and have confidence in themselves. Thats why things don't change, because people don't believe in themselves enough to think they could ever make a difference so they go on leading their stereotypical lives. Its also kind of creepy how people can feel alright with themselves when they make a huge selfish effort that destroys another people's values and culture...

Good luck world!
