为了保持在全球变暖的安全边界内，世界现在有30年的时间来实现经济脱碳。这对旅游业作为一个增长系统来说是一个非常重大的挑战。人们对航空、住宿和减排活动等不同的旅游次级部门给予了很大关注，这些活动主要是基于(未来)技术。然而，《巴黎协定》要求立即采取行动，并在零碳轨道上取得显著的同比进展。本文探讨了低碳新形势下的目的地管理问题。它分析了经济生存能力和韧性等挑战，鉴于新冠肺炎疫情，这些挑战也变得更加重要，并在泄漏/支出价值二分法命题的基础上探索提高盈利能力的机会。最后一节强调了目的地管理者在建立繁荣和有弹性的低碳旅游目的地系统方面必须发挥的首要作用，并讨论了目的地管理者的主要见解。
To stay within the safe boundaries of global warming, the world now has 30 years to decarbonize its economy. This represents a very significant challenge for tourism as a growth system. Much attention has been paid to different tourism subsectors such as aviation, accommodation, and activities to reduce emissions, mostly on the basis of (future) technology. However, the Paris Agreement demands immediate action and significant year-on-year progress on a zero-carbon trajectory. This article discusses destination management under the new low-carbon imperative. It analyses challenges, including economic viability and resilience, that have also gained importance in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and explores opportunities for better profitability on the basis of a leakage/spending value dichotomy proposition. The final section highlights the foremost role that destination managers must play in building prosperous and resilient low-carbon tourism destination systems and discusses the key insights for destination managers.
