Study on the impact of carbon emission pollution on urban tourism environment

The tourism industry will continue to produce carbon emissions in the process of development, which will ultimately have an impact on the tourism environment. This article aims to study the effect of carbon emission pollution on the urban tourism environment. Taking Hebei Province from 2016 to 2020 as an example, the effect of carbon emission pollution on the local tourism environment was analyzed using the carbon emission model and tourism eco-efficiency model. The local carbon emission increased in the process of developing the tourism industry; however, carbon emissions per unit in the accommodation, catering and shopping related to the tourism industry generated more tourism economic benefits. The authors suggest to strengthen the development of tourism transportation, increase local tourism promotion, enhance the diversity of tourism specialties, and improve the level of local catering and hotel services.
