schema:articleBody	Winter sports' governing body has long come under fire for its impact on the environment, but on Wednesday the international ski federation (FIS) announced that it would aim to achieve climate neutrality for their own organisation and their events by 2030. "FIS will work with international experts to generate a Climate Action Guidelines document, aiming at making snow sports climate neutral and sustainable," FIS said in a statement after its council approved the 2020 Mainau Manifesto on the responsibility of snow sports towards nature and sustainability. The body will also "actively advocate for the reduction of greenhouse-gas emissions through legislative and regulatory measures in all its member countries". FIS has been regularly criticised, notably in its governance of alpine skiing, over both the lack of a synchronised calendar for men and women and the sheer number of events in different countries. It means athletes, their coaches and support staff are left criss-crossing continents to compete in a sport whose very future is theoretically under threat from global warming. "Despite the fact that snow sports are rooted in nature appreciation and are greatly popular, they, like many other human activities, depend on the use of natural resources," FIS said. "Snow sports contribute to global warming by their carbon footprint. Due to their nature as outdoor activities, snow sports are more visibly affected by climate change than other sports." The Switzerland-based FIS is responsible for the Olympic disciplines of alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, ski jumping, nordic combined, freestyle skiing and snowboarding. rg/lp/mw
