A woman in the frozen northernmost region of the country went viral after posting a video of her sled. Janita Kenttl said on Tik Tok that she was going to the supermarket because it was more eco-friendly and gas prices were so high.
Kenttl captioned the video, which has more than 600,000 likes and 4,700 comments, "When they priced the gasoline 2e/liter and you live in Lapland with long distance everywhere."
In the clip Kenttl is wearing a Luuhka, a cold-weather cape. In the video, her 3-year-old reindeer Solina pulls the sled along a beautiful snowy landscape, weaving a path between trees, his antlers jutting above a furry coat and white tail.
One person quipped, "How many carrots per mile does that model get?"
Nothing is like a deer.
The price of gasoline in Finland was as high as $8.00 per gallon by the beginning of the year, according to one tracker. It is easy to see why such an eco-friendly alternative would be preferable if many residents must travel long distances to get to a grocery store. Reducing emissions must be a top priority, and Kenttl's team could teach us a thing or two.
Kenttl, president and COO of the Lapland tour company Eanan, says that she always looks for ways to make her operation more efficient and eco-friendly. The team uses animals for their tours.
Don't fix it if it isn't broken. The Smi people have survived in a harsh winter wilderness longer than any other car company has existed, so we think they are experts in eco-friendly transport.
It was mush!
There is more on advanced transport.
