## Sustainability story

Over the past decade Ski Butlers have made it a priority to shift business decisions with climate front of mind. The journey has resulted in a multipronged approach and has evolved over time but the priority has always been to focus on climate solutions in the communities we impact. 

This journey started in 2010, when Ski Butlers’ CEO, Bryn Carey, connected with Jeremy Jones from Protect Our Winters and continues today with Ski Butlers switching banks to stop financing fossil fuels.

While our journey is far from over, Ski Butlers is proud of our progress and wants to share our climate history to help our public understand that education, advocacy, action and divestment are all needed to solve the climate crisis.
