  • Climate Change and Doom Tourism: Advertising Destinations ‘Before They Disappear’
    Climate Change and Doom Tourism: Advertising Destinations ‘Before They Disappear’ Dr Elspeth A. Frew School of Sport, Tourism and Hospitality Management La Trobe University Bundoora Vic 3086 Australia Phone: +61 3 9479 2333 Fax: +61 3 9479 1010 Email: [email protected] 1 Climate Change and Doom Tourism: Advertising Destinations ‘Before They Disappear’ The paper investigates tour operators’ on-line promotion of tours to natural regions of the world which are beginning to be negatively affected by climate change. This is particularly illuminating given the highly competitive environment in which tour operators’ work, where they are under pressure to maximise the use of the natural resources before they deteriorate beyond use or, disappear completely. The study examined the websites of tour operators who operate in the Great Barrier Reef, Greenland and Mount Kilimanjaro and found that only a small proportion of tour operators currently use such techniques to promote their products. However, the operators that do have recently developed tours to allow tourists to experience the impact of global warming first hand and provide those tourists with opportunities to contribute financially and/or in kind to the conservation of the region. Areas of future research are identified. Key words: ecotourism; global warming; climate change. 2 Climate Change and Doom Tourism: Advertising Destinations ‘Before They Disappear’’ INTRODUCTION Over the last thirty years, several events have supported the contention by the ‘green movement’ that economic development and growth may be inconsistent with the world’s environmental carrying capacity. These events included a series of high-profile environmental disasters, escalation in human induced climate change, accelerating ozone depletion, increased incidence of dangerous viral and bacterial mutations and, rampant desertification and deforestation (Weaver and Lawton, 2006).

    AEROSMITH RETURNS FOR NEWLY ANNOUNCED SECOND LEG OF ‘THE GLOBAL WARMING TOUR’ TICKETS GO ON SALE SEPTEMBER 24 BAND’S NEW ALBUM ‘MUSIC FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION’ STREETS NOVEMBER 6 “Brad Whitford and Joe Perry are playing better guitar than ever. Steven Tyler is playful, happy, and singing all of those impossible high notes. Joey Kramer has a drum groove like no other. And Tom Hamilton…continues to be the steady anchor to this ship.” --Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses, Velvet Revolver, Loaded) SEATTLE WEEKLY, August 10, 2012 AEROSMITH ain’t messing around. America’s greatest rock band delivered absolutely killer sets on the first leg of their triumphant, sold-out The Global Warming Tour this past summer, with critics dropping comments like (we kid you not, see below) “stunning…jaw-dropping…impassioned intensity…seamless swagger...epic rock moments…a wonder to behold…Aerosmith always managed to reinvent itself for the masses without losing its inherent musicality...Make no mistake, Aerosmith remains king.” They ain’t done yet.

  • Day Recycler Going Green
    Today a ‘Spare the Air’ day Staff reports Visalia Times-Delta and Tulare Advance-Register, Friday, Aug. 3, 2007 Today is a “Spare the Air” Day in Tulare County, the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District announced. Officials said residents can help reduce and control pollution by: · Taking public transportation. · Avoiding the use of gas-powered yard-care equipment. · Avoiding the use of water craft and off-road vehicles. Recycler going green Facility set to reduce harmful emissions BY STACEY SHEPARD, Californian staff writer The Bakersfield Californian, Monday, Aug. 6, 2007 A project under way will make a city-owned recycling center even more environmentally friendly. Yes, even recyclers can be polluters. The Mount Vernon Greenwaste Facility -- where grass clippings, tree limbs and other yard waste is made into compost -- will replace its diesel-run equipment with electric-powered machines by the start of next year. The changeover will drastically reduce the amount of nitrogen oxides the facility creates. NOX, as it's known, is primarily responsible for smog, the haze that clouds our air and obscures mountain views. The upgrades will bring the facility into compliance with an air regulation that requires operators of stationary diesel equipment to seek cleaner alternatives, said Kevin Barnes, the city's solid waste director. Another newly passed air rule that takes affect in the next few years will require diesel trucks at the facility to have cleaner burning engines, further reducing the facility's harmful emissions. The current changeover at the facility will cost about $3 million. Part of the cost is covered by a grant for $280,000, which came from money paid for through developer impact fees.
