• CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR AND DEMAND RESPONSE OF TOURISTS TO CLIMATE CHANGE (2012, background): “…of international tourist arrivals versus a scenario with no emission reduction policies, in all cases demand for air travel and international tourism continues to increase (Gössling, Peeters, & Scott, 2008; Mayor & Tol, 2007; Mayor & Tol, 2010; Pentelow & Scott, 2010; Pentelow & Scott, 2011).”
• Critical Issues in Air Transport and Tourism (2013, background): “For instance, extensive analysis by Mayor and Tol (2007, 2008, 2010) and Tol (2007) found that the inclusion of aviation in the EU ETS would result generally in a smaller EU (and, separately, the United Kingdom) tourism sector and minimal reductions in emissions.”
• International and national climate policies for aviation: a review (2019, background): “However, air passenger taxes do not give airlines any incentives to reduce their emissions and are less effective than a tax on jet fuel (Mayor & Tol, 2007).”
• Can tourism deliver its “aspirational” greenhouse gas emission reduction targets? (2010, background): “…agreement would be needed to supersede existing legislation) or through passenger levies, as is done in the United Kingdom (although this system does not fully account for differential emissions of flights of different lengths and has been highly criticized for this; see Mayor and Tol 2007).”
• Can sustainable tourism survive climate change? (2011, background): “Where does this leave mitigation, notable among which is the focus of concurrent proposals for a carbon tax on international air travel (Mayor & Tol, 2007)?”
• Carbon tax, tourism CO2 emissions and economic welfare (2018, background): “The number of tourists would significantly be affected by levying carbon-related air passenger duties (Mayor & Tol, 2007) and other climate policy instruments (Mayor & Tol, 2010).”
