Tourism development and environmental degradation in the United States: evidence from wavelet-based analysis (2017, unknown): “…CO2 emissions In the past years, many studies have been done on investigating the relationship among tourism and pollution (Bakhat & Rossello, 2011; Becken, 2002; Dredge, 2012; Dubois & Ceron, 2006; Dubois, Peeters, Ceron, & Gossling, 2011; Gössling, 2002; Holden, 2000; Kent, Newnham, & Essex,…”
Carbon neutral destinations: a conceptual analysis (2009, background): “In industrialised countries, emissions from tourism may, however, be higher in both relative and absolute (per capita) terms than the global average (e.g. Becken, 2002).”
Measuring National Carbon Dioxide Emissions from Tourism as a Key Step Towards Achieving Sustainable Tourism (2006, methodology): “Tourists Trips 2000 Energy use 2000 (PJ) CO2 emissions (kilotonnes) International 1,648,988 7.59 434 Domestic 16,554,006 17.76 1,115 Total 18,202,944 25.35 1,549 Source: becken (2002b) Table 2 Average travel behaviour by six international tourist types for key transport and accommodation travel choi”
Travel and tourism competitiveness index: The impact of air transportation, railways transportation, travel and transport services on international inbound and outbound tourism (2017, background): “There are plenty of studies that discussed the importance of air transportation on tourism demand (see Lumsdon, 2000; Becken, 2002; Guimer a et al., 2005, Vowles, 2006; Macchiavelli and Pozzi, 2015; Jenkins, 2015; Anvari et al., 2015 etc).”
Protecting the Environment the Natural Way: Ethical Consumption and Commodity Fetishism (2010, background): “…getting a visitor from a First World country to a tropical ecotourism destination and back again uses 205 kg of aircraft fuel and generates about 650 kg of CO 2 emissions (for estimates of emissions produced getting travellers to New Zealand, a growing ecotourist destination, see Becken 2002).”
Estimating the carbon footprint of Australian tourism (2010, methodology): “Air travel in particular accounts for a major share of tourism-related energy use, particularly for developing countries and island destinations where the vast majority of tourists arrive by airplane (Becken, 2002; Gössling, 2000, 2002).”
How Tourists and Tourism Experts Perceive Climate Change and Carbon-offsetting Schemes (2004, background): “Tourism’s role as contributor to climate change has largely been neglected, with only few studies having investigated energy use and greenhouse gas emissions associated with tourist activities (Becken, 2002; Becken et al., 2001; Gössling, 2000; Høyer, 2000).”
