Environmental friendliness of the ski resort Rosa Khutor
The Sochi Olympic Games have been criticized due to the building of ski resorts in the previously undisturbed natural environment. The mountain in Rosa Khutor was massively modified in order to create the competition slopes, which is very evident when there is not much snow. However, they also want to attract guests in the summer months, so they put a lot of effort into the reestablishment of vegetation. In addition, the encroachments made due to the construction of the ski resort are countered with many compensatory measures such as the project to reintroduce the snow leopard to the area. The exemplary connections of the ski resorts surrounding Krasnaya Polyana to the public transportation network are also very positive. In the course of the Olympic Games preparation, the region was also connected to the gas supply and must no longer heat with coal and wood, which also significantly improves the air quality.
