Download free spec: Vision pre-publication offer on Carbon Market and Tourism Guide
The 2011/12 issue of the Tourism and Carbon Market Guide is due to be published shortly..
The report outlines today’s single biggest tourism issue and offers the opportunity for tourism businesses to understand and use the emissions market to: save money, make money, get more efficient and cost effective, gain market share, operate sustainably, healthily and spiritually AND get MASSIVE market advantage.
A few facts:
- Legislative mechanisms have been set in place and the clock is running – it is only a matter of time before rigorous legislation and increasing energy prices take their massive toll on the travel and tourism industry.
- Whatever your opinion of the EU ETS emission trading system it is set eventually to change the cost and the economics of flying – globally.
- Smart hoteliers are already coining it in by managing their energy use/emissions – for instance IHG states that their Green Engage programme is already saving them over $100 million a year.
- Somehow or the other the world is going to have to reduce total emissions if we are to avert disaster. This will only be done by the carrot (big savings for green energy) and the stick (big taxes for black energy) – the tourism industry emits somewhere between 5% and 15% of global emissions – do you think that it will escape?
- As in every other big change (think electricity, the internet, the economic crisis) those that are prepared and understand win and those that don’t understand and are unprepared lose.
Carbon Market and Tourism is a fact-packed guide especially written for the travel and tourism industry to prepare: Ministries of Tourism, Tourist Boards, CVBs, DMOs, Hotels, Guest Houses and other accommodation operators, transportation operators, tourism attraction operators, inbound and outbound tour operators and travel agents.
