Our World

Melting away the winter's from Russia to Canada.

Where is winter? People all over the world, especially in the northern hemisphere are asking. This winter is said to be the least snowy winter in over 350 years in Lapland. In Moscow, they have had the highest record-breaking temperatures ever! Usually extremely harsh winters leads to lots of snow which sky resorts usually bring in thousands of dollars, but this year many resorts are scared that they just might not make it. We all know that global warming is causing these drastic weather changes. The things its that we never realized what this warm winter weather is doing to resorts and business all over the world. Many businesses that rely on winter such as, ski resorts, snow wear shops, and other winter equipment places are a little bear these days. Also the Ski resorts have to rely on their snow makers so supply the snow these days, and the quantity and quality of that snow is killing the sales at these resorts. I miss our winters. When will it snow… or will it ever?
