CFT is built upon three key principles:

  • Paris 1.5
  • SDG Linked
  • Nature Positive

A structured approach for tourism to develop and implement strategies aligned with these three pillars will lead the tourism industry towards sustainability. The framework recognizes the need for urgent action to address the climate crisis and the role of tourism in contributing to global sustainability effort. The resources provided in this section will help you to build your own Climate Action Plan based upon these three key principles.

The latest IPCC and TPCC reports as well as ICAO, IATA, WTTC, UNWTO - all of which emphasise the urgency of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. They note that Tourism-related emissions, comprising 8-10% of global greenhouse gas emissions, continue to rise. Most countries are not on track to meet their commitments to halve tourism emissions by 2030. Climate change impacts on the tourism sector are particularly significant , yet few authorities focus adequately on adaptation and mitigation efforts.
