“…Those conditions indicate the urgency of implementing the concept of low-carbon tourism, which aims to achieve a less negative impact of tourism and a higher quality of tourist experience with low-carbon emissions and less pollution in transportation, accommodations, and attractions (Bhaktikul et al, 2021;Zhang et al, 2016). The implementation of low-carbon tourism within a sustainable development framework, the study of (Kusakabe et al, 2015), denotes that this low-carbon development income-generating green job opportunities enhances tourism and social development (Kusakabe et al, 2015). According to the International Labour Organization (ILO) description, green jobs are the creation of economically feasible and viable jobs that reduce energy and raw material consumption (evaporate economy), lessen GHG emissions (decarbonize economy), reduce waste and pollution, shield and enhance the great of the surroundings and be capable of adapt with environmental changes (International Labour Organization, 2012a).…”

Afterward, the tourism sector contributes to environmental impact. Accelerating the tourism sector’s role to achieve net zero carbon tourism activities for a higher quality experience is indispensable. Instead, there is currently a change in tourism trends that focus on developing sustainable tourism and implementing low-carbon tourism within sustainable development resulting in green job opportunities that positively impact economics, socio-cultural, environment, and communities. Based on several previous studies, not much research has been found on the implications of the role of green jobs in developing the tourism sector in Indonesia. Qualitative literature methods such as journals, books, study reports, statistical reports, and policy and regulations, and the acquisition of data and information are analyzed using the VRIO (value, rarity, imitability, and organization) approach. Commence by identifying the issue related to low-carbon tourism and their impact on the value creation of green jobs as an enabler to support sustainable tourism, resource capacity, and competitiveness, and the results of the VRIO analysis to obtain strategic implications. Indonesia's low-carbon tourism sector has four key elements that can provide a sustainable competitive advantage: environmental innovation, investment in an environmentally friendly tourism industry, human resource capacity, and green skills.

“…Dong et al calculated the tourism carbon footprint of Jiangsu province from 2000 to 2015, the results show that from 2000 to 2015 the tourism carbon footprint is always larger than tourism carbon capacity, in another words during this period of time the tourism industry of Jiangsu province is unsustainable [7]. Kyoko Kusakabe et al taking Hue city in Vietnam as an example and suggests that the best way to keep urban tourism sustainable is combine low carbon development policies with people's social responsibilities [8]. Jin et al calculated the tourism carbon footprint of Shanxi province and the result shows from 2000 to 2021, the tourism carbon footprint of Shanxi province increased ceaselessly until 2018.…”

Based on Carbon Footprint model, we calculated the tourism carbon footprint and tourism carbon capacity of Gansu Province in 2019 and 2020. The results indicate that: 1. Tourism carbon deficit is in 2019 and in 2020, which indicates a negative impact on ecosystem. 2.The number of tourists in 2020 is lower than 2019. Therefore, the tourism carbon footprint in 2020 was reduced compared to 2019. 3.From the information in this study, indicate the tourism industry in Gansu Province is unsustainable.

“…As Vietnam embraces green growth development and pursues its New Countryside programme, a nation‐wide project initiated in 2009 aims to modernise the countryside through measures to develop infrastructure, social services and cultural practices (Minh, 2017), tourism and agrotourism (or rural tourism) are often included as part of the national and local agenda (Kusakabe et al ., 2014; Hoang and Pulliat, 2019). Such tourism development aims to reduce the country's reliance on polluting industries and stimulate local economy while encouraging green agricultural practices and preserving traditional crafts (Bùi Xuân Nhàn, 2009; Hoang and Pulliat, 2019; Nguyễn Anh, 2021).…”

Agrotourism in Vietnam has been identified as one of the strategies used to achieve green growth and countryside modernisation, and it is often included as part of the national and local agenda. In this paper, we examine agrotourism in a village in the periphery of Hội An city (an international tourism hub in central Vietnam) to question tourism's interaction with ongoing development processes. More specifically, we aim to understand the impact of fast peri‐urbanisation on agrotourism and the impacts of agrotourism on people's daily lives, specifically when it comes to physical changes in their living environment, tensions in their social life and their concerns about the future. Our analysis is supported with data generated from interviews with farmers, local officials, tourism workers and tourists. We find that agrotourism products lacked authenticity and farming was not of great interest for tourists, yet the state's investment in the village tended to favour spaces and infrastructure that could attract more tourists and generate profit, to the detriment of cultural infrastructure. Land speculation and an unequal distribution of income were the main tensions in the village along with farmers' concerns about their rural heritage, income diversification and environmental quality. As such, agrotourism in the village has been driven by rapid urbanisation and mass tourism, creating a competition between a consumption activity and a productive activity. Those are important parameters that future policymakers need to take into consideration in order to sustain the city's food production and tourism.
