This week, we\\u2019re off to Costa Rica, an eco-tourism hotspot in collaboration with BBC\\u2019s The Travel Show.
Eco-tourism is big business - it\\u2019s forecasted to generate $103 billion annually by 2027. But how well do its green claims actually stack up when it comes to the climate?
Presenter Qasa Alom visits the birthplace of Sea Turtle conservation, goes on patrol with a ranger protecting the forest from loggers and miners, and spots luxury tourist developments in the terrain of the puma.
How big is tourism\\u2019s climate impact, and can this ever be mitigated by its benefits?
Guests: \\nRalf Buckley, Director of the International Centre for Ecotourism Research, and Research Director of the Climate Response Program at Griffith University, Australia. \\nStefan Gossling, Professor at the Linnaeus University School of Business and Economics and Lund University's Department of Service Management
