使用R& D为基础的增长模型与内生的位置选择和游客的运动，我们调查的影响，祖父排放许可证和机票，包括外国人税对国际旅游业。我们发现，改善环境质量，实现了有限的分配祖父许可证，导致旅游业带动的增长。也就是说，游客数量和旅游增长率都增加。相比之下，我们发现，慷慨分配不受限制的许可证和包括外国人税在内的机票价格下降导致环境质量恶化，导致污染避风港的产生，因为该政策促使污染企业搬迁到符合相应法规的地区。我们的研究结果表明，可持续旅游业可以实现时，各自的环境和旅游政策的实施。
Using an R&D-based growth model with endogenous location choices and movement of tourists, we investigate the effect that a grandfathered emission permit and an airfare including alien tax have on international tourism. We find that improved environmental quality, achieved by the restricted allocation of grandfathered permits, leads to tourism-led growth. That is, both the number of tourists and the tourism growth rate increase. By contrast, we find that worsened environmental quality, caused by generous allocation of grandfathered permits and reduced airfares including alien tax, leads to the creation of pollution havens because the policy prompts polluting firms to relocate to the area with the respective regulations. Our findings imply sustainable tourism can be achieved when the respective environmental and tourism policies are implemented.
