Sure it made sense for Dubai to build a huge indoor ski hill. Or rather, it wasn’t shocking that Dubai thought it would be a good idea to create a massive energy sinkhole in the middle of the desert. The Scandinavians have a bit of snow that naturally occurs in their country, do they really need an indoor ski hill? Well, they seem to think it would be a good way to host ski races year round and offer consistent course conditions. They also claim that they’ll be able to make it ‘climate positive’ by producing all of their own energy from renewable resources.
