NYT warns of “scorching heat…fires, floods, tornadoes and hail storms”-\u00a0August 5, 2023<\/a>: “This year, everything from scorching heat to fires, floods, tornadoes and hail storms driven by climate change have disrupted the plans of travelers around the world. A summer getaway remains a powerful desire, but it\u2019s at a tipping point…For decades, science has confirmed that unabated climate change will cause more misery, more hardship and cost millions of lives\u00a0in the years to come<\/a>. We\u2019re getting a taste of the results this summer. Our relationship to travel has reached a tipping point. What happens when we can\u2019t just vacation through it?”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Climate Depot comment: Despite the NYT’s carefully crafted narrative, tourists do not seem to care about climate change!NYT laments: “Despite all the crises, global arrivals \u2014 the total number of tourists who cross a border \u2014 are projected to be up 30 percent from last year, according to the\u00a0Economist<\/a>\u00a0Intelligence Unit<\/a>,…And tourism is big business. The sector\u2019s growth outperformed global gross domestic product growth by\u00a0more than 40 percent in 2019<\/a>, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Climate Depot comment: The New York Times persists in its climate storytelling and suggests people will face “tough decisions” and cope by “perhaps choosing” to stay home and huddle around the air conditioner.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

NYT: “Tragic headlines and statistics are prompting hard looks at the nature of tourism: who benefits and who gets to participate. More people will find themselves confronting personal and increasingly tough decisions \u2014 and, like Ms. Barber, perhaps choosing a less appealing but more comfortable option: ‘We just all stayed home and huddled in a room with the air-conditioner on,’ she said.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

NYT \u2013 By\u00a0Mac Schwerin \u2013\u00a0Aug. 5, 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can\u2019t escape the orange. That\u2019s what travelers this summer have been reckoning with \u2014 swaths of tangerine, traffic cone and burnt sienna on maps indicating record high temperatures around the globe. Four concurrent heat domes from the southern United States to East Asia descended on millions \u2014 Phoenix residents\u00a0enduring 31 days<\/a>\u00a0of 110-degree-plus temperatures. Italians in more than a dozen cities under\u00a0extreme weather warnings<\/a>. And in South Korea, at least 125 people were\u00a0hospitalized for heat-related conditions<\/a>\u00a0at the World Scout Jamboree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the summer travel engine kicked into high gear this year, it wasn\u2019t just the scorching heat affecting carefully laid plans. There were also fires, floods, tornadoes and hail storms. Eight inches of rainfall left parts of Vermont\u00a0coping with catastrophic floods<\/a>. Tens of thousands of people, including thousands of tourists, had to evacuate islands in Greece because of wildfires. (Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Wednesday\u00a0offered a free weeklong stay<\/a>\u00a0in 2024 to those travelers affected \u2014 in spring or fall.) The popular music festival Awakenings canceled a date in the Netherlands because of concern over\u00a0hail, lightning and thunderstorms<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Increasingly dangerous weather now hits classic summer destinations, with conditions growing more erratic, expensive and deadly. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the United States has experienced four climate disasters since May, each causing over a billion dollars in damages. The National Park Service estimates that more visitors have died of heat-related causes since June than do in an average year. The indirect toll is almost certainly higher:\u00a0A recent study found that summer heat waves killed 61,000 people in Europe last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But even if the idea of a summer getaway remains culturally resilient, is it still practical? Where to go is certainly less obvious \u2014 you can\u2019t hide from reality when reality is 100-degree seawater, or a raging wildfire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For decades, science has confirmed that unabated climate change will cause more misery, more hardship and cost millions of lives\u00a0in the years to come<\/a>. We\u2019re getting a taste of the results this summer. Our relationship to travel has reached a tipping point. What happens when we can\u2019t just vacation through it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strong demand, migrating patterns<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite all the crises, global arrivals \u2014 the total number of tourists who cross a border \u2014 are projected to be up 30 percent from last year, according to the\u00a0EconomistIntelligence Unit<\/a>, a research division of the media company. The\u00a0World Tourism Organization<\/a>\u00a0reports that travel to Europe is now at 90 percent of prepandemic levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And tourism is big business. The sector\u2019s growth outperformed global gross domestic product growth by\u00a0more than 40 percent in 2019<\/a>, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council. That same year it\u00a0employed 333 million people<\/a>\u00a0worldwide \u2014 equivalent to one in 10 jobs \u2014 and accounted for more than 10 percent of the global economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the absence of national or unified support, planning may fall to corporations with pockets deep enough to marshal resources at scale. \u201cDisney is sort of a poster child for a really good way to handle large numbers of people effectively,\u201d said Daniel Scott, a professor of geography and environmental management at the University of Waterloo, in Canada. He suggested that the business model of globalized tourism may start to mimic the integrated resorts typified by Disney, where a single entity owns the infrastructure and controls visitor experiences with greater predictability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s impossible to know where we go from here. But the cognitive dissonance of summer travel in a warming world is catching up to us. Tragic headlines and statistics are prompting hard looks at the nature of tourism: who benefits and who gets to participate. More people will find themselves confronting personal and increasingly tough decisions \u2014 and, like Ms. Barber, perhaps choosing a less appealing but more comfortable option: \u201cWe just all stayed home and huddled in a room with the air-conditioner on,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
