针对能源消费导致的旅游业碳排放进行了初步估算,并在省级尺度上从总排放量、人均游客排放量和单位旅游收入碳排放量三个方面对中国各省(市、区)2001年-2009年的旅游业碳排放开展了研究,同时还利用标准差和变异系数分析了我国各省区旅游业碳排放差异的总体特征,以及运用可多层次分解的Theil系数分析了2001年-2009年我国旅游业碳排放时间尺度上的地带内、地带间和省际差异变化状况。研究表明:北京、上海和广东等地的旅游业碳排放总量、人均游客碳排放量和单位旅游收入碳排放量均较高,且平均增长率也均为正,因此这些地区的旅游业发展面临着更大的减排压力;我国各省区旅游业碳排放差异的总体特征是绝对差异在不断扩大,相对差异也呈不断上升的趋势,而就碳排放区域差异来看,我国各省区旅游业碳排放总体差异主要是由地带内差异引起的,而地带内差异又主要是来自东部地带的差异,并且东部地带内旅游业碳排放量区域差异很大,对于全国旅游业碳排放总体差异的影响也最为显著,而西部地带次之,中部地带最小。
This paper conducts preliminarily the calculation of carbon emis- sion caused by energy consumption of tourism industry in China. We calculated the total emissions of tourism industry, tourist per capita carbon emission of tourism and tourism income per capita carbon emission of tourism industry re- spectively at the provincial scale, and the standard deviation and coefficient variation of CO2 emissions for tourism industry at provincial level in China. What's more, Theil index is used to show temporal changes of inter-provincial, inter-regional and intra-regional CO2 emissions disparities for tourism industry in China. Results show that the total emissions of tourism industry in China is growing steadily from 2001 to 2009, which reflects further strengthening the work of energy-saving emission reduction is imperative to adapt to the global warming. Specifically, for Shanghai, Beijing and Guangdong province, these values and their average growth rates in terms of total emissions of tourism industry and average CO2 emissions of tourist per capita of tourism industry are much higher than those of other regions. Therefore, those regions will face increasingly severe pressure to reduce emissions of tourism industry. Additionally, the overall characteristics of difference of CO2 emissions for tourism industry at provincial level are that the coefficients of absolute difference and relative difference between them keep rising continuously. As for the temporal changes of inter-provincial, inter-regional and in- tra-regional CO2 emissions disparities for tourism industry in China, In- ter-regional CO2 emissions disparities for tourism industry in China is the main contributors, which is caused by CO2 emissions disparities of the eastern China. Moreover, CO2 emissions disparities for tourism industry in the East China are the biggest in the country, which has the most significant effect on the temporal changes of the total emissions of tourism industry in China. Finally, to reduce carbon emissions of tourism industry in
