Ski Resorts Fighting Fires | Lubbock News

Swiss ski resort Adelboden-Lenk is turning its snowmaking gear into a wildfire defense system—using reservoirs and pipes to fight fires as climate change shrinks glaciers and dries summers. With 70% of snow now man-made, the resort’s infrastructure could refill firefighting helicopters or create wet buffers around at-risk zones. While Switzerland hasn’t seen massive blazes yet, drought conditions are raising alarms—even in cooler regions like Bern. Experts say it’s a smart short-term fix, but not a climate solution.
