海南环东线旅游路线碳足迹计算与分析

Visitor’s Carbon Footprint of A Three-day Tour in Hainan

旅游"碳足迹"是衡量旅游活动对环境影响的一种新方法.文章将旅游活动整体看作多因子组成的线性活动,并以海南环东线三天两晚旅游路线为例,运用旅游饮食、住宿、交通、游憩、购物、娱乐及废弃物七个构成因子的碳足迹模型计算旅游者在旅游活动过程中产生的碳足迹,主要结论如下:1)旅游活动是一个资源消耗性的活动,CO2排放量较高,为全国人日均碳排放的6.8倍;2)旅游线路产品的碳足迹主要集中在交通、饮食与住宿三方面,占总碳足迹的近98%;其中以交通碳足迹所占比重最大,为76.784%;饮食与住宿碳足迹分别占13.024%、8.078%;3)旅游活动中游客的废弃物碳足迹占总碳足迹的2.066%;4)游、购、娱三项构成因子在总碳足迹中的比例均不足1%.针对各项构成因子的碳排放特点,文中还提出了减少碳排放的措施与建议.

Visitor＇ s carbon footprint is a method used to analyze the environmental impacts of tourism activities. In this paper, the tourism activities are regarded as an linear activity consisted of food and beverage, accommodation, traffic, recreation, shopping, entertainment and waste factors. Visitors＇ carbon footprints of a typical 3-day-and-2-night tour in Hainan are Calculated. The results show that： 1 ）The popular tour in Hainau is a high resource consuming activity with high CO2 emission of total 201.162 kg, daily 67.054 kg per capita, which is 6.8 times of that of the daily consumption of Chinese per capita; 2）Transportation, food and beverage consumption, accommodation account for the 98% of the total carbon footprint of a visitor, among them, transportation has a highest proportion of 76.784%; The latter two account for 13.024% ,8.078%, respectively; 3）Wastes contribute 2.066% to the total carbon footprint; （4）The percent of recre- ation, shopping, entertainment are less than 1%.According to the features of the tourist activity constructions, some sug- gestions to reduce the carbon footprint are put forward.
