About 73% of the younger generations &#8212; Millennials and Generation Z &#8212; are more likely to pay more for sustainability, compared to 51% of Baby Boomers.<\/li>\n<li>Adventure tourism, valued at $263 billion is one of the fastest growing categories of tourism that attracts high value customers, supports local economies, and encourages sustainable practices. From 2009 to 2012, the adventure travel market had an estimated average yearly growth of 65% in Europe, North America, and South America.<\/li>\n<li>Adventure operators have reported an average of US$3,000 spent per person, with an average trip length of eight days. US adventure tour operators polled estimated that 65.6% of the total trip cost from an adventure package remains in the destinations visited. In comparison, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) have estimated that in most all-inclusive mass tourism package tours, about 80% of travelers\u2019 expenditures go to the airlines, hotels, and other international companies instead of to local businesses or workers.<\/li>\n<li>Rural tourism growth in Europe is three times greater than the increase in tourism in general.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can <a href=\"http:\/\/www.responsibletravel.org\/whatWeDo\/The%20Case%20for%20Responsible%20Travel%202016_Final.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">download the report for free here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Case for Responsible Travel &#8211; Trends and Statistics 2016 reports latest findings, statistics and quotes concerning the state of responsible tourism<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[266,675,534,14,176,72],"tags":[907,908,240],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.4 -
