Responsible tourism

Working with the industry

We are committed to work collaboratively with the tourism and events industry. To this effect, we share insight and best practice around reducing carbon emissions. A responsible and low carbon approach to re-building and growing tourism in Scotland needs to be a priority. There's no time to sit back and hope others deliver.

We're asking the Scottish tourism sector to prioritise responsible, low carbon growth. This includes businesses, destinations, organisations, and partners. Using the insights in this section, you can join us on the journey to reach net zero.

In this section, we published research undertaken with Scotland’s tourism and events industry. This examines attitudes and approach around:

  • tackling climate change and becoming more sustainable

  • environmental actions to reduce carbon emissions

  • advice, support and information desired by businesses to help them become more sustainable
