Tourist Perceptions of Climate Change: A Study of International Tourists in Zanzibar

A study was conducted in Zanzibar, Tanzania, in order to understand tourist perceptions of climate change, the importance of climate for travel decisions, and the likely consequences of ongoing climate change for travel decisions. The results show that climatic characteristics of destinations are important, though not the only factor shaping travel decisions. Under a scenario of climate change, certain climate variables, such as more rain, storms, and higher humidity are also likely to negatively influence travel decisions, rather than higher temperatures alone, which are not necessarily perceived as negative. Regarding the contribution of travel to climate change, the study reveals that leisure tourists in Zanzibar are largely unaware of their impact on the natural environment, while the analysis of stated travel behaviour shows that they frequently travel by air. Overall, the results indicate that travel flows might change in more complex ways than currently assumed, and that a small share of high-intensity air travellers is responsible for a considerable environmental impact in terms of climate change.

区域经济可持续增长与人力资源支撑能力研究——以河北省为例

资源消耗过度、环境污染严重、产业结构调整和升级缓慢的经济增长是难以持续的;区域经济的可持续增长必须以大量的、高素质的人力资源做支撑以及包括教育、科研、信息技术、金融服务等第三产业的快速发展为基础。分析表明,目前河北省第三产业发展缓慢,人力资源支撑能力明显不足,尤其是高素质人才相对短缺,专业人力资本存量较低。为此,河北省应加大教育投资力度,加强人力资源开发,为实现经济可持续增长提供强有力的支撑。     

南水北调中线工程水源地的生态安全与对策研究

南水北调中线工程是我国进行水资源优化调配,解决北方,尤其是京、津、冀地区资源性缺水的21世纪重大战略工程。丹江口水库汉江上游地区为水源地.由于其水土流失和局部水体污染严重,自然灾害频繁,中线工程的建设使得水源地生态环境的综合治理更为紧迫,因此维护水源地生态安全的重点在于水源地的综合治理,其关键是加大水源地生态建设的投入.并完善南水北调中线工程管理体制,加强立法体系的建设,抓紧生态环境综合治理和建设重点,尽快建立科学合理的生态补偿机制和绿色GDP核算体系.加大水源地生态安全相关课题的研究等政策建议。

Backpackers in Hong Kong – motivations,preferences and contribution to sustainable tourism

This paper examines the backpacker market in Hong Kong, in terms of profile, motivation, preferences, and contribution to sustainable tourism development. The purpose is to provide an understanding of this market to help in marketing and promoting services and products that meet backpackers’ needs as part of expanding Hong Kong’s target market. Currently, Hong Kong relies on tourists from mainland China and recent reports reveal the issue of social conflicts between mainland tourists and Hong Kong residents. Based on a survey of backpackers in youth hostels and hiking trails in Hong Kong, this study revealed that backpackers are pushed by the search for new ideas and pulled by the uniquefood culture of Hong Kong, preferring to experience such a unique food culture in a traditional setting. Moreover, they are less likely to spend on international brands in Hong Kong as part of promoting sustainable tourism development.
