| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
There is concern that greenhouse gas emissions from aviation will turn tourism into a carbon-intensive industry. Emissions trading is therefore being introduced for the aviation industry. However, at the start of the study, the industry was still in the implementation phase and the impact of its environmental policy on the tourism industry was not clear. This research project aimed to theoretically elucidate the impact. The analysis found that emission allowance reductions lead to sustainable tourism and tourism-led growth when international movement of tourists is taken into account. However, when taking into account tourist movements by air, sustainable tourism and tourism-led growth were found to have a trade-off relationship. Furthermore, several related studies have identified mechanisms for sustainable development.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
持続可能性社会の実現に向け、観光産業は更なる取り組みが求められている。なぜなら、観光移動に必要な航空機は大量の温室効果ガスを排出するからである。航空産業の脱炭素化を促す為、EU諸国は航空産業に対して排出権取引を導入している。しかし、最近の導入であることから事例やデータが不足している為、この環境政策が観光産業に与える影響は明らかではない。本研究課題は、理論分析の強みを生かし、この環境政策の効果を明らかにした。この知見は、持続可能な観光を目指す上で必要な対策は何かを議論することに加え、この環境政策の制度を改善する際にも活用できる。以上より、持続可能な観光に関する理論的基礎を社会に提供したと言える。
