Tourism is one of the main economic sectors in Europe, contributing a significant share of the gross domestic product of many countries and providing millions of jobs. Despite the economic benefits, the rapid growth of the tourism sector is putting significant pressure on transport infrastructure and the environment. The intensive use of transport means, such as planes, cars and ships, significantly increases carbon dioxide emissions and air pollution, which has a serious impact on climate change. In addition, tourist destinations, especially those with mass tourism, are faced with problems such as overexploitation of natural resources, water pollution and soil erosion. This raises the need for new, sustainable tourism management models that minimize negative impacts on the environment.
