In addition to creating and improving his line of snowboards, Jones works to create films that record his climbing and snowboarding adventures around the world. In November 2012, Jones was selected by National Geographic Magazine as a nominee for Adventurer of the Year, based on his, "remarkable achievements in exploration, conservation, humanitarianism, and adventure sports." [1] Jones is also the founder of the non-profit group, Protect Our Winters, which works to reduce the effects of global climate change by means of educational, activist and community based projects.

“The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.”
1 Peter 1:24-25 and Isaiah 40:8
looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat! But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
2 Peter 3:12-13 and Revelation 21:1
Some great insights, but I don’t worry about the earth. My GOD’s got it ☺️.
I like Jones alot but the word 'um' was used way to much. That was brutal to listen to..
Took him a bit to get going but once he did, I think he did well. Public speaking on a major platform like this has to be nerve-wrecking as heck...
you want a guy you don't know, to lose his job, affecting his family, and the ability to feed his children because of your focus, your mantra, your beliefs. Lost me there chief.
If that's your takeaway, you have bigger problems, chief.
