Climate change will exert an enormous impact on all societies in
the medium to long term. Tourism, as both a commercial activity and
social phenomenon is not immune. To date, industry has been slow to
recognise the scale of the threat posed by a changing climate on
its operations and consumers have been extremely reluctant to
modify their travel behaviours. The Asia Pacific region is well on
the way to being the 21st Century powerhouse of tourism, however
the manner in which it develops will, in part, be determined by how
the global community responds to climate change. This book examines
climate change issues related to tourism in the Asia Pacific
region. Chapters discuss demand and supply side issues, explore
government policy responses and introduce several new adaptation
models. The book also calls for a more effective linking of social
science research with the scientific discourse to create long term
resolution of and adaptation to this issue. This book was published
as a special issue of Asia Pacific Journal of Tourism Research.
