FIS in SDG Leaders
Feb 24, 2025·Inside FIS
FIS is the first to acknowledge: climate change, the biggest challenge of our lifetime, is an existential threat to snow sports.
It was under this clear premise that President Johan Eliasch took part in an interview as part of CNBC's "SDG Leaders" series and discussed how snow sports is working to be at the forefront of the fight against climate change.
“FIS sees itself as having two sets of key responsibilities: to athletes and fans, and to the planet,” says Eliasch.
We want both a rich race calendar and a sustainable footprint, and are convinced that with intelligent planning we can have both.”– Johan Eliasch, FIS President
