The problem is that, almost 10 years ago, tourism was responsible for 8% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Since then, tourism has been increasing by around 4% annually - a growth trend that’s projected to continue into the future.
The only real solution is for everyone to reduce their amount of pleasure travel. The article didn’t offer any guidance as to how to force that change on the global population from the top down, but I’m not sure that sort of “solution” would be very amenable to HN anyway.
