Fair and Carbon Free Tourism

This project seeks to identify and create conditions for collective action
against detrimental social and environmental impacts of tourism. These
impacts of tourism-induced economic activities are often underestimated,
and while social impacts are increasingly being considered in some tourist
hubs like Barcelona or Dubrovnik, environmental burdens in particular are
often not (yet) addressed. COVID-19 has devastated the tourism industry,
with many livelihoods at stake, but perhaps there is a window of
opportunity to rebuild better.

In December, we offer three webinars that strive to build a community
interested in transforming this sector and steering it towards low or
zero-carbon intensity, while keeping a specific focus on the social
dimension and lessons from the pandemic.

*GREEN EUROPEAN JOURNAL* Life Under Shock: Understanding the Pandemic

*The new edition of the Green European Journal is out now!*

The health crisis and its tragic consequences have radically changed every
aspect of social life. The implications of Covid-19 go deep, worsening
social inequalities, speeding up disruptive technological change, and
exposing a broken relationship with the natural world. From the experience
of urban areas to new solidarities such as the notion of essential workers,
this edition traces its causes and effects, as well as our response.
Spanning loneliness among the elderly, the future of public health, and
biodiversity loss, it tracks how the pandemic shines a light on fundamental
challenges for the 21st century.

While some wish to return to business as usual, putting health over the
economy has forced the politics of life and living together out into the
open, and as this edition shows, the task for Greens and progressives are
keeping them at the centre of our politics.
