Abstract: This paper uses input/output to calculate the total, direct and indirect carbon emission of China’s tourism industry in 2002, 2005, 2007, 2010 and 2012, and applies LMDI to decompose the total carbon emission variables. Results show a rising overall carbon emission but a falling carbon emission intensity, mainly contributed by transportation, food and lodging, and shopping. Indirect carbon emission amounts to 70% of total emission. Rise of tourists and rising personal expense are key reasons in boosting carbon emission in tourism industry. Descend in carbon emission intensity can effectively impede carbon emission. Income structure has no impact on carbon emission. This paper presents the major paths to reduce carbon emission in tourism industry, including reducing carbon mission intensity, converting tourists’ consumption habitats, and controlling tourism size. It needs actions from transportation, food and lodging and shopping, and from intermedium industrial departments as well.

摘要: 文章运用投入产出分析方法,计算出2002年、2005年、2007年、2010年和2012年中国旅游业的直接、间接和完全碳排放,并借助LMDI方法对完全碳排放变化量进行了分解分析。研究发现,旅游业碳排放总量呈现出逐年递增的趋势,而碳排放强度则逐年递减,交通、食宿和购物是旅游业碳排放的三个主要部门,旅游业间接碳排放占完全碳排放的70%;游客规模扩张和旅游人均消费升高是促进旅游业碳排放增加的主要原因,碳排放强度下降是抑制碳排放的关键因素,收入结构对碳排放的影响并不显著。结果表明,降低碳排放强度、转变游客消费理念和合理控制旅游规模,是降低旅游业碳排放的主要方法;旅游业碳减排不仅需要交通、食宿和购物等旅游直接相关部门的努力,还需要向旅游业提供中间产品的各个产业部门共同承担。
