Environmental protection of the ski resort Espace Diamant – Les Saisies/Notre-Dame-de-Bellecombe/Praz sur Arly/Flumet/Crest-Voland
Les Saisies positions itself as an environmentally friendly ski resort and takes numerous measures to live up to this claim. Electric shuttle buses operate in the village, emitting eleven times less CO2 than a regular bus. The snowmaking system has been optimized for lower energy consumption, the snow groomers run on biodiesel, and thanks to satellite navigation, they spend 8% less time on the slopes. The ski slopes are maintained and grazed during the summer. There are protected zones for the rare capercaillie. Almost all restaurants serve products from local farmers, especially cheese and sausage specialties. Employees are trained in environmentally friendly behavior, and litter collection campaigns take place in the summer. Waste bins placed throughout the area help ensure that less litter ends up in the landscape in the first place.
