As one of the world’s largest and rapidly growing industries, tourism is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. This results from the industry’s dependence on its customers who journey to world-wide destinations that may be affected by changing climate conditions such as warming and/or cooling. By considering the current economic contributions made by the tourism industry as well as its potential growth and the impact greenhouse gases will have on the environment, it is becoming increasingly necessary for the tourism industry to identify adaptation strategies to mitigate the impact of climate change.
