Hi #ecoathletes friends! Today's #GreenSportsBlog features EcoAthletes Advisory Board member Dr. Maddy Orr on why Lake Tahoe, due to traditionally too-warm temperatures & bright sun was the wrong choice for Feb's #NHLOutdoorGames. Vegas Golden Knights-Colorado Avalanche game was delayed by 10 hrs, Bruins-Flyers by 5. League could've gone 2 Minnesota lake that would've had colder weather, better ice. Bigger issue: Playing outdoor games in warm-ish climes Tahoe or worse, hot climates like LA (they played a game at Dodger Stadium in 2014 and are open to going there again), a bad look for a league that sez it cares abt climate https://buff.ly/3vAiDOW #ClimateComeback #GreenSports
