An "extreme" reaaction? Yes. Fox news and teh Republican party could use your help (They are in fact intentionally creating controversy to stall the agenda of Obama's administration.)
Try to be a bit more tempered. Let me help you:
With guided skiing, maybe some of the hardcore skiers in Telluride could get an opportunity to do what they love and get paid for it. I mean, I know all you back country skiers love washing dishes and busing tables. And while they are at it, they could impart on our guests the importance of environmental responsibility. You never know, this may make an impression on our guests. They might even go home and adopt a more responsible environmental lifestyle. They might influence others, too.
Oh, and what else do we have to show for as accomplishments in our society. Well, we have an African American President (woo-WHO!!!). We have a full-fledged popular environmental movement, fighting hard to preserve our planet (no, the war has not been won, but progress has been made). We had a successful civil rights movement. Women & African Americans were provided their right to vote. The threat of nuclear destruction of the planet no longer exists. Communism and the evil Soviet empire is dead. Seems to me like we took on a lot in the last 40...50 years, and won.
...You know, some might say the glass is half full.
