Climate Change، Tourism، Climate Action in Tourism Sector

الملخص

Average temperatures are on the rise, and so the global emission trends are. Emissions must be reduced to zero by the 2050s to keep global warming at an acceptable level. This study focuses on the climate change performance of countries responsible for 90% of global emissions. CCPI is used for this purpose. The climate change performance scores and international tourist numbers of 54 countries included in the index, whose data can be fully accessed, between 2009-2022 were compiled as longitudinal panel data. These data were explained with descriptive statistics. Then, they were compared with CVIT vulnerability rates. It was observed that the countries' average climate change performance scores were low despite the increasing international tourist numbers. Some countries have low climate change performance scores and high international tourist numbers. As a result of the research, countries with low performance, high vulnerability scores, and high international tourist numbers were determined. In light of this data, a summary of the methodology and tools used to measure emissions in the tourism sector was drawn and presented.
