It’s the biggest issue facing the world, and will change the shape of tourism forever. <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Destinations may become uninhabitable, coastal regions lost to sea rises and storms, and energy costs will soar. Whether you are a student or CEO; whether you want ideas to improve your hotel’s energy efficiency or an inspirational speaker for your event, our collection of essential resources is the place to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Few Facts<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Few Facts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Calculations of the contribution of the industry to climate change range from 3.9% to 6% of human emissions, with the best estimate being that tourism is responsible for 4.9% of global emissions<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a new study published in the Journal of Sustainable Tourism<\/em>,the damaging effects of CO2<\/sub> emissions from tourism could eventually be eliminated if travelers paid just US$11 per trip<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contribution of tourism to greenhouse gas emissions are projected to grow 130% between 2005 and 2035<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emissions from transport and the built environment account for 95% of tourism\u2019s emissions<\/a><\/strong>, meaning that reductions from those two sectors will dictate much of its mitigation potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decarbonizing global tourism represents a long-term investment, but given its tremendous growth, the relative cost is less than 0.1 per cent of the estimated global tourism economy<\/a><\/strong> in 2020 and increases to 3.6 per cent in 2050.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Practice Examples – Hotels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hotel Milano Scala<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\"EssentialA zero emissions hotel in Italy. According to Greenloons: “The use of water to water warm pumps, for heating as well as for the air-conditioning, without release of pollutants, is not the only aim which has been realised to reduce the energy consumption and the environmental impact<\/a>. The hotel is equipped with an automated and computer-controlled system which controls for the dosage of the parameters of heating and cooling and their relative power consumption. The rooms are administered by magnetic cards to optimise the consumption; the windows are equipped with magnetic contacts which block the system when and while opened. In the kitchen induction plates permit fast and cooking loosing any heat.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ITC Hotels, India<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>According to Greenhotelier, ITC is “the only company in the world of its size to achieve the environmental distinction of being water, carbon and solid waste recycling positive<\/a>.” More than 50% of the total electrical energy demand at ITC hotels is met through renewable sources. ITC Gardenia, ITC Windsor, ITC Maratha and ITC Grand Chola are powered 100% by renewable energy, and ITC Sonar is said by Greenhotelier to be “the only hotel in the world to have earned carbon credits”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soneva, Maldives & Thailand<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Stating on its website that its ultimate aim is to decarbonise operations<\/a>, Soneva shows rare levels of transparency and accountability by factoring in guest flights into its carbon emissions. The company levies a compulsory additional charge of 2% of room revenue on each guest’s stay, with proceeds given to The Soneva Foundation, a not-for-profit organization that funds a range of projects that have a positive environmental, social and economic impact and importantly, offsets carbon emissions from resort activities and guest flights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laguna Lodge Eco-Resort, Guatemala<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>A finalist for WTTC’s Tourism for Tomorrow Environment award for 2015, this Guatemalan ecolodge has undertaken some remarkable steps to reduce its climate footprint<\/a>. Most notable of these is the facts that, despite the fact that 95% of its guests are omnivores, Laguna doesn’t serve any meat or fish. In addition, there are 180 solar panels producing 20Kw of continuous power, the website is hosted on a carbon neutral server, Wifi is provided by solar power. Even the clocks in the guest rooms are powered by water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hotel Verde, Cape Town, South Africa<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\"EssentialThe first carbon neutral hotel in Africa, Hotel Verde’s efforts are all the more remarkable when you consider this is an airport hotel. As well as  being as energy efficient (a one-night stay generates the equivalent of about 54 kilograms of carbon), the hotel offers every guest a carbon offset certificate to confirm their participation in the carbon-neutral programme. Proceeds go to the Kariba REDD+ project in Zimbabwe, which works with communities to reduce deforestation, provide training on responsible agriculture and improve the livelihoods of local people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boutique Hotel Stadthalle, Austria<\/a>
<\/a>\"Essential<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

European Winner of the Green Hotelier awards for 2015, Hotel Stadthalle has undertaken a renovation to make this townhouse boutique hotel \u2018zero-carbon balanced\u2019. According to Green Hotelier, There are now 130 square meters of solar panels, a water heat pump, and windmills on the roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research & Publications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Climate Change: Implications for Tourism<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A briefing published by the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL) and the Cambridge Judge Business School (CJBS) distils the key findings from the  Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Fifth Assessment Report for the tourism sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Can tourism be part of the decarbonized global economy? The costs and risks of alternate carbon reduction policy pathways<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This paper from the Centre for Sustainable Tourism and Transport compares potential costs associated with different policy pathways to achieve tourism sector emission reduction ambitions (\u221250% by 2035) and transform the sector to be part of the mid-century decarbonised economy (\u221270% by 2050)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Travel & Tourism 2015; Connecting Global Climate Action<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

WTTC’s report outlines the preparedness of the sector for climate change alleviation measures and demonstrates the progress that has been made by the world\u2019s airlines, airports, hotels, cruise lines, car hire companies and other industries in the last decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Time is of the essence: adaptation of tourism demand to climate change in Europe<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This study analyses the potential impact of climate change on tourism demand in the European Union (EU) and provides long-term (2100) projections accounting for climate adaptation in terms of holiday duration and frequency<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>On climate change skepticism and denial in tourism<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This paper stresses the extent of scientific consensus that human-induced warming of the climate system is unequivocal. Second, it responds in the context of tourism research, highlighting tourism’s significant contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, as well as climate change’s potential impacts on tourism at different scales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Carbon labels in tourism: persuasive communication?<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This paper argues that even if tourists care about their climate change impacts, carbon labels are currently ineffective because of deficiencies in communications. yet, since such deficiencies can be overcome, there are opportunities for carbon labels to become more widely and successfully used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Decarbonizing tourism: Would you pay US$11 for a carbon-free holiday?<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

New study argues that the damaging effects of CO2<\/sub> emissions from tourism could eventually be eliminated if travellers paid just US$11 per trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
