T<\/span>he Vacationer\u00a0conducted a\u00a0survey<\/a>\u00a0before\u00a0Earth Day 2022\u00a0to find out how Americans feel about sustainable travel, how many are willing to spend more money to travel sustainably, how many actually plan on making more eco-friendly decisions when planning travel, how many use technology\/filters to find sustainable travel options, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The anonymous survey included 1,096 American adults over the age of 18 and was conducted online using SurveyMonkey’s interface\/audience on our behalf on March 1, 2022. Eric Jones, Assistant Professor of Mathematics at Rowan College South Jersey, analyzed the survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Stats:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

87.32% of American adults say sustainable travel is either Somewhat Important or Very Important to them. That is a 4.65 percentage point increase from the same question in our 2021 Sustainable Travel Survey where 82.67% said sustainable travel is either Somewhat Important or Very Important to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

81.57% of American adults plan to make more sustainable (eco-friendly) decisions when planning travel. Of the 81.57%, only 29.84% say they will make the decisions regardless if it inconveniences them, while 51.73% will do it only if it does not inconvenience them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

78.28% would pay more for a vacation to lower their carbon footprint. Only 71.37% said they would pay more in last year’s survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6.84% say sustainability and carbon footprint is the most important factor when booking travel. Cost came in at 59.58% and time and convenience came in at 33.58%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

81.43% either think there are not enough sustainable travel options or simply do not know if there are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

19.43% use sustainable travel filters like “low emissions” when booking trips. 43.98% are not even aware they exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
