How are you sensing climate change?

In my audio recording, I speak about my experience growing up competitively skiing. We used to go on a ski trip every year to Mont Tremblant. I noticed throughout the years that it was getting warmer and warmer such that fewer and fewer runs would be open. As well, I talk about the difference in the sound of the snow which went from being fluffy and light to being grainy and icy from the snow machines.

How do these changes make you feel?

These changes make me feel upset that future generations may never be able to have the same experiences while skiing at Mont Tremblant due to changes in weather patterns.
