As one of the main goals of Ride Aware is to increase awareness among the riding community, specifically about our environmental and social impact, below are links to pages and publications that help us understand where we stand within our environment, and in the face of cultures that exist in the places we travel to in pursuit of our passions.
While the pages contain the views of their individual authors, they are opinions shared by Ride Aware. If you have any comment, suggestions, or questions, please feel free to email us here.
Environmental Impact:
-Carbon Impact of the Average Surfer
-Carbon Calculator from Conservation International (we're currently looking for one specific to Riding; if you have one, let us know).
-Enviro Impact of Skiing & Snowboarding (a brief overview).
Social/Cultural Impact:
-Snowboard Travel and its Effects [PDF]
-Impacts of Globalization on the 'Third-World' (a relatively brief look)
