“…As the first known study to quantify the distribution and redistribution of climate resources for camping and related naturebased tourism more broadly, this paper has established that observed climate change has already altered climate resources, creating both risks and opportunities. The results are broadly consistent with regional tourism climatology studies using indices conducted in North America [29,54,70], Europe [7,71], Australia [72,73], China [74,75], the Mediter-ranean [76,77], and South Africa [78]. Nature-based tourism activities are very sensitive to the weather; thus, the changing climatic conditions may very well lead to changes in tourism demand patterns as has already been observed by Monahan et al [45] in US national parks.…”

Climate change is impacting the distribution of climate resources upon which nature-based tourism and recreation depends. Accordingly, we examine the global distribution of climate resources from 1948 to 2016 using the Camping Climate Index (CCI), a composite index previously validated for camping and national parks visitation for 80% of the world’s major climate types found in the United States. Calculating the CCI globally, spatial and temporal analysis indicates that climate suitability differs greatly for nature-based tourism and that changes have occurred over the last 50 years in many destinations. Locations with higher latitudes and altitudes have primarily experienced shifts towards more favorable climate conditions. Conditions have worsened in tropical and subtropical regions such as central Africa, central Australia, and Southern Asia. Results demonstrate that the redistribution of global climate resources for nature-based tourism and recreation is primarily driven by warming temperatures and the increased frequency of extreme weather events in some regions. Study findings are of particular interest to destination managers and planners of outdoor locations susceptible to weather and climate change.

“…Therefore, we use the Baidu index of ''emergency'' to capture the degree of urgency of the public in responding to climate risks; finally, meteorological hazards may interfere with transportation systems, and the public will pay attention to flights, trains, and other dynamics after perceiving the risk of meteorological hazards, For example, before the landing of Typhoon Niburt, the term ''stopping transportation'' was used the topics of ''stopping transportation'' and ''stopping sales'' became hot topics (S. Y. Ma et al, 2021). Therefore, in this paper, we chose the keywords ''train suspension'' and ''ticket refund'' etc.to measure the consequences of climate risk.…”

Haze pollution not only affects the quality of economic growth and the image of the government, but also seriously affects public health. With the improvement of climate risk perception, the public is actively seeking all kinds of risk management measures to combat the hazards of haze pollution. The study of the relationship between haze pollution, climate risk perception and the development of commercial health insurance is of great significance to the formulation of haze control policies and the improvement of social security system. This paper attempts to explore the relationship between haze pollution, climate risk perception and commercial health insurance demand by establishing static and dynamic models based on panel data from 31 provinces in China from 2005 to 2022. Also, the spatial spillover effects of haze pollution in different regions on the development of commercial health insurance in other regions are investigated by establishing a spatial Durbin model. It is found that (1) haze pollution has a lagged positive effect on the demand for commercial health insurance; (2) haze pollution has a significant spatial spillover effect on the development of commercial health insurance; (3) this study used Python technology to construct a climate risk perception index, and found that the moderating effect of the residents’ perception of climate risk existed significantly, and that the residents might take other measures to manage the risk in the short term, but in the long term, the climate risk perception showed a positive correlation with the level of education. This paper provides implications for government departments and social media to strengthen education and publicity, improve residents’ awareness of risk diversification, and deepen the concept of commercial health protection.
