Tourism is one of the fastest developing sectors of the economy and one of the sectors extremely vulnerable to climate change. As all tourism destinations rely on their unique natural or cultural values, any changes in climate and an increase in extreme climate events impact on the industry more than the other economic sectors. The article presents the relationship between climate change and tourism, focusing on the ethical dimension of sustainable tourism. The aim of the article is to present the moral questions on sustainability in tourism in the context of climate change. It focuses on environmental values and presents its role in the context of sustainable tourism development.

Abstract The international community has committed to achieve 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030 and to enhance climate action under the Paris Agreement. Yet achievement of the SDGs is already threatened by climate-change impacts. Here we show that further adaptation this decade is urgently required to safeguard 68% of SDG targets against acute and chronic threats from climate change. We analyse how the relationship between SDG targets and climate-change impacts is mediated by ecosystems and socio-economic sectors, which provides a framework for targeting adaptation. Adaptation of wetlands, rivers, cropland, construction, water, electricity and housing in the most vulnerable countries should be a global priority to safeguard sustainable development by 2030. We have applied our systems framework at the national scale in Saint Lucia and Ghana, which is helping to align National Adaptation Plans with the SDGs, thus ensuring that adaptation is contributing to, rather than detracting from, sustainable development.

The Relationship

This chapter examines the relationship between the Internet and sex tourism. It argues that interest in sex tourism in the media erupted in the early 1990s, about the same time that the Internet itself was becoming popular. The relationship between the two was both positive and negative. On the one hand, the Internet has allowed members of sexual subcultures to contact each other and for new forms of sex tourism to be marketed. On the other hand, the Internet also provided a platform for those opposed to sex tourism to raise the profile of the issue, in the process conflating images of sex tourism with those of Internet pornography, pedophilia, and child abuse, particularly in relation to tourism destinations in the Southeast Asian region. It has therefore aided the amplification of moral panics surrounding these issues. This sensational coverage has, however, tended to overshadow other forms of sex tourism, including those in which consenting adults meet together in resorts of clubs for recreational sex with each other. Thus, while the Internet has created moral panics and led to crackdowns in certain sections of the sex tourism market, it has allowed other alternative lifestyles to flourish on an unprecedented scale in an increasingly liberalized environment.

Policy Perceptions

Sustainability of tourism destinations has become the main focus in planning and managing tourism development. Despite existing legislation and an institutional framework to safeguard balanced tourism growth, many destinations fail to properly address it. So far, studies are limited in exploring sustainable tourism impacts from a policy perspective. This study follows previous ones in using the triple bottom line sustainability approach to define tourism impacts. It argues, in particular, for a nexus between understanding of policy perception and sustainability, and it applies this to tourist destinations in Serbia to determine whether they are operating sustainably. For this purpose, the data were collected using a combination of multiple methods, involving interviews with policymakers and content analysis of strategic documents. This study further suggests a model that assesses the extent of the sustainability of tourist destinations. The results illustrate the importance of understanding policy perceptions in shaping and facilitating sustainability and informing policy enablers on how to improve and reform current tourism development. The model can be adopted and applied to any tourist destination facing an inevitable need to re-shape their tourism development plans and policies, while the implications address the need to build a participative policy approach to sustainable tourism development.

The Relationship

Though community empowerment and sustainable tourism development (STD) have been discussed in the existing literature, little research has focused on the elaborate mechanisms between these two variables. Therefore, the present study examines the relationship between community empowerment and STD, along with the mediating role played by community support for tourism. Using social exchange theory, this research establishes theoretical relationships between vital variables for STD. A survey of empirical study was undertaken, and data were collected from 353 local residents in the northern area of Pakistan. The results for data analyses demonstrated a significant relationship between community empowerment and STD initiatives, and community support for tourism was shown to partially mediate the relationship between the two variables. The findings imply that high community empowerment enables the community to establish successful sustainable tourism development through local people’s support for tourism. This study contributes theoretically to identifying the idea that community members’ support for tourism has a crucial function bridging the link from community empowerment to sustain tourism in a local area.

Estudos indicam que as mudanças climáticas poderão afetar a distribuição global de arboviroses, influenciando fatores como sobrevivência de vetores, patógenos e transmissão viral. Assim, buscou-se nesse estudo realizar uma revisão sistemática dos artigos mais recentes – publicados entre 2015 e 2020 - relativos a essa temática. Após a aplicação de critérios de elegibilidade, 28 artigos foram selecionados para análise. A partir da revisão, verificou-se que as mudanças climáticas poderão afetar a aptidão das regiões para transmissão viral e a distribuição geográfica de mosquitos do gênero Aedes. Contudo, o efeito das mudanças climáticas varia em diferentes regiões, podendo causar expansão ou contração das áreas aptas para a ocorrência de arboviroses. Em geral, verifica-se um potencial crescimento das áreas aptas em regiões temperadas, sobretudo para o A. albopictus. Em regiões tropicais, por outro lado, o aumento da temperatura poderá limitar as áreas, atualmente, consideradas aptas. Embora não seja intuitivo, alguns estudos previram que a mitigação parcial das mudanças climáticas pode ocasionar maior risco de transmissão viral do que nenhuma mitigação. Assim, é possível verificar que a relação entre as mudanças climáticas e a transmissão de arboviroses não é direta e pode variar em diferentes cenários e locais.     Climate Change and its Impact on the Incidence of Arboviruses: A Systematic Review of Recent Studies A B S T R A C TStudies indicate that climate change may affect the global distribution of arboviruses, influencing factors such as vector survival, pathogens, and viral transmission. Thus, this study aimed to conduct a systematic review of the most recent articles - published between 2015 and 2020 - related to this theme. After applying eligibility criteria, 28 papers were selected for analysis. From the review, it was found that climate change may affect the suitability of regions for viral transmission and the geographical distribution of mosquitoes of the genus Aedes. However, the effect of climate change varies in different regions, which may cause expansion or contraction of areas suitable for the occurrence of arboviruses. In general, there is a potential for growth in suitable areas within temperate regions, especially for A. albopictus. In tropical regions, on the other hand, the increase in temperature may limit the areas currently considered suitable. Although not intuitive, some studies have predicted that partial mitigation of climate change may lead to a higher risk of viral transmission than no mitigation. Thus, it is possible to verify that the relationship between climate change and the transmission of arboviruses is not direct and may vary in different scenarios and locations.Keywords: Climate; Projection; Aedes; Arboviruses.
