• Igloo Village In Engelberg.
This igloo village is located most beautifully at the Trübsee. Located at an altitude of 1800 metres, this village makes you feel like the first human being in the mountains.
No stray light keeps the stars from competing with the ice crystals for the best glitter. At daytimes, discover the new “snowXpark” with electric snow bikes and paragliding.
Some get married in igloo village. Monasteries and igloos have got more in common than you might expect: The Showcase cheese factory at the Engelberg monastery presents carefully handmade edible cheese in igloo shape and the monastery shop.
The cheese is highly appreciated by the igloo guests and monastery visitors alike. A pastry shop in Zermatt bakes yeast-raised pastries with icing – the so called “igloo bun”

Engelberg: Green factor
• Recycling: All resorts offer recycling facilities to guests, either within their
accommodation and/or at special recycling points, which are hopefully convenient
• Waste reduction policy The influx of winter guests to ski areas tends to bring an influx of, what's
politely termed 'waste water', to the mountains as thousands of guests use the toilets on the mountain and bathroom in their accommodation.
The most environmentally forward thinking ski areas are using techniques such as composting to reduce waste from mountain restaurants. In some areas purified wastewater is also being used for snowmaking, on the one hand an eco friendly measure as it recycles 12

• Traffic Reduction Policy
Traffic reduction can take many forms. Several Swiss resorts and a few in other countries have banned cars altogether for decades. Some have never had cars on their streets.
Other approaches include pedestrianized centres and out-of-centre car parking with resort centre access only on foot or by public transport - hopefully, electrically powered buses.
These, along with expensive and/or severely restricted resort centre parking, and an efficient free and cheap bus service, all help to reduce traffic problems and thus cut emissions.

•Green Building Policy
In Engleberg ,Ski resorts are increasingly looking at minimising the environmental impact of their construction projects, as well as the impact of newly erected buildings and other infrastructure.
Having a green building policy means resorts put environmental concerns at the top of the when working on new projects.
This can include a myriad of things from using helicopters to reduce the damage to surrounding land when building in sensitive areas, to using natural, local materials for building and looking for maximum insulation and minimum power requirements, ideally supplied in as eco-friendly a way as possible. 14

Environmental pricing reform :EPR is the process of adjusting market prices to
include environmental costs and benefits.
Pigovian tax :A Pigovian tax is a tax applied to a market activity that is generating negative externalities (costs for somebody else). The tax is intended to correct an inefficient market outcome.

and social equity, while significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities
Green trading Green trading encompasses all forms of environmental financial trading, including carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide (acid rain), nitrogen oxide (ozone), renewable energy credits, and energy efficiency .
Eco commerce: Eco commerce is a business, investment, and technology-development model that employs market-based solutions to balancing the world’s energy needs and environmental integrity.

POSSIBLE DYNAMICS. Renewable energy commercialization : involves the deployment of three
generations of renewable energy technologies dating back more than 100 years
E.g... The wind, Sun, and biomass are three renewable energy sources. Marginal abatement cost : MAC curves cover emissions reduction opportunities
across a number of sectors in an economy including power, industry, waste, buildings, transport, agriculture, and forestry.
Green paradox :The Green Paradox describes the fact that an environmental policy that becomes greener with the passage of time acts like an announced expropriation for the owners of fossil fuel resources, inducing them to anticipate resource extraction and hence to accelerate global warming.
Green politics: Green politics is a political ideology that aims to create an ecologically sustainable society rooted in environmentalism, social justice, and grassroots democracy.
Pollution haven hypothesis :The pollution haven hypothesis posits that, when large industrialized nations seek to set up factories or offices abroad, they will often look for the cheapest option in terms of resources and labor that offers the land and material access they require 20
