摘要
Background:As environmental issues become increasingly prominent,the implementation of the low-carbon mode has become the trend of future economic development.The implementation of a low-carbon mode in the tourism industry is conducive to the sustainable development of the industry,but at present the low-carbon development of China’s tourism industry still faces many problems,especially in ethnic areas where tourism is more developed.Results:Taking Guizhou ethnic areas as an example,this study estimated the carbon emissions of the Guizhou tourism industry from 2011 to 2015.It was found from the calculation of tourism consumption stripping coefficient that the total carbon emissions in 2011–2015 were 21.37,25.43,27.93,29.51,and 30.03 million tons,showing a rapid growth trend,in which the tourism accommodation catering industry accounted for a high proportion.Conclusions:Guizhou’s carbon emissions are increasing year by year,and there are still many problems in realizing lowcarbon tourism.The low-carbon tourism mode needs to be established from aspects of government,tourism enterprises,and tourists.The rich tourism resources in minority areas should be fully utilized to realize the sustainable development of the tourism industry.
