“…Erfaringene med UNEPs arbeid har vist svakhetene ved et FNorgan som har usikker finansiering, liten myndighet og lav status. 23 Brundtland-kommisjonen påpekte allerede i sin rapport behovet for å styrke UNEP (VKMU 1987), men nyere studier viser at de fleste av problemene kommisjonen påpekte, har vedvart (Andresen 2001, Downie & Levy 2000, Hoefnagel & Bode 2001. I sum konkluderer likevel de fleste observatører med at UNEP har vaert viktig for miljøarbeidet i FN.…”

The tourism sector is generally perceived as a green industry because of its seemingly clean value chain activities. However, despite these perceptions, there have been doubts regarding the environmental impacts of tourism. Past studies have considered these environmental effects due to increasing concerns about global warming and climate change. This chapter attempts to analyze the effects of tourism value chain activities on carbon emissions in the context of the environmental Kuznets curve for G20 countries using a ten-year dataset. The results confirmed the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis. The findings indicate that, despite increases in energy use and investment inflow, tourism activities decrease carbon emissions. The study concluded that tourism sector activities, foreign trade, and labor force participation all have statistically significant favorable effects on carbon emissions. Given the growing global transitions within the sector, the study reckons the sector's need to focus on sustainable tourism as a development and improvement strategy.
