Holidaymakers have been warned that "carbon passports" may have to be introduced for international travel - putting certain destinations off-limits.
The report stated: “These allowances will manifest as passports that force people to ration their carbon in line with the global carbon budget, which is 750 billion tonnes until 2050. The report, created with The Future Laboratory, warned that climate change means popular holiday destinations - like Greece and Majorca - may become too hot for people to enjoy.It stated: “At this pivotal moment in climate history, lack of action from the travel industry will see catastrophic and fatal trends continue to develop.”
Darrell Wade, co-founder and chairman of the company, said: “The direct, catastrophic impact of climate change has for too long been viewed as something distant in the future. But this is no longer an impending event; it’s happening now.“We must recognise that the future needs to be different from business as usual, and that the climate crisis is not a competitive advantage.
