Carbon tax, tourism CO2 emissions and economic welfare (2018, unknown): “T voluntary approaches (Eijgelaar, 2011; Gössling et al., 2007; Horng et al., 2014; Mair, 2011; Scott, Peeters, Gössling, Scott, & Becken, 2010), comprehensive framework discussions (Horng, Hu, Teng, & Lin, 2012; Hu, Jeoushyan, Teng, & Shengfang, 2013; Peeters, Gossling, & Williams, 2006; Zhou,…”
Willingness to pay for flying carbon neutral in Australia: an exploratory study of offsetter profiles (2014, background): “Although there have been a range of criticisms such as low credibility, confusion and complexity, and low levels of transparency (Broderick, 2008; G€ossling et al., 2007; Juvan & Dolnicar, 2014; Polonsky, Grau, & Garma, 2010), the unique and important position of voluntary carbon offsets has…”
Using Public Transport Can Make Up for Flying Abroad on Holiday (2015, background): “Indeed, the concept of compensation is now readily advertised as a means of atoning for unsustainable activities (e.g., air travel) through, for example, voluntary carbon-offsetting schemes (e.g., Gössling et al., 2007).”
CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR AND DEMAND RESPONSE OF TOURISTS TO CLIMATE CHANGE (2012, background): “Research by Gössling et al. (2007) and Dearden and Manopawitr (2010) indicates that novice divers are less impacted by climate change, as they have a more limited knowledge of what constitutes healthy coral reefs.”
Swedish air travellers and voluntary carbon offsets: towards the co-creation of environmental value? (2009, background): “This share corresponds to an estimated 2% of global CO2 emissions; a figure that would be considerably higher if the radiative forcing of non-carbon greenhouse gases is considered as well (Sausen et al., 2005; UNWTO-UNEP-WMO, 2008).”
Carbon neutral destinations: a conceptual analysis (2009, background): “With regard to all of these measures, it seems unclear how countries will calculate carbon storage, and over what time spans (cf. Gössling et al., 2007).”
Theorising Transitional Pathways in Response to Climate Change: Technocentrism, Ecocentrism, and the Carbon Economy (2009, background): “…disconnect consumption from emissions by promising remote emissions savings which, particularly in the case of VCOs for personal carbon footprints, involve minimal scrutiny by the individual buying them, although moves exist to create codes of conduct for VCO providers (Go« ssling et al, 2007).”
Exploring airline passengers’ willingness to pay for carbon offsets (2012, background): “Except those regulatory requirements like ETS or APD, voluntary trades are also proposed as an option for companies or individual consumers, known as voluntary carbon offsets (Gössling et al., 2007; MacKerron et al., 2009).”
Sustaining Tourism, Sustaining Capitalism? The Tourism Industry's Role in Global Capitalist Expansion (2011, background): “This possibility demands further investigation, building upon the growing body of work exploring the multifaceted relationship between tourism and climate change (e.g. Hamilton et al. 2005; Gössling & Peeters 2007; Gössling et al. 2007).”
