Climate change and its effect on the development of tourism with a focus on mountain destinations

Predmet ovog istraživanja je utjecaj klimatskih promjena na turizam s naglaskom na planinske destinacije. Klimatske promjene su stvarnost koje sa svojim utjecajem pridonose ozbiljne posljedice na turizam posebno u planinskim područjima. S obzirom na povećanje globalnih temperature, zaključuje se kako će klima nastaviti utjecati na planinske destinacije i na turizam u njima. Stoga se zahtijeva prilagodba i održivi pristup kako bi se očuvala privlačnost planinskih destinacija te na zaseban turizam. Kako postaje sve važnija svijest o klimatskim promjenama, turisti sve više traže održive opcije putovanja, što može potaknuti planinske destinacije da se prilagode ekološki prihvatljivijim praksama.The subject of this research is the impact of climate change on tourism, with a focus on mountain destinations. Climate change is a reality that significantly contributes to serious consequences for tourism, especially in mountainous areas. Considering the increasing global temperatures, it is concluded that the climate will continue to affect mountain destinations and tourism within them. Therefore, adaptation and sustainable approaches are required to preserve the attractiveness of mountain destinations and the tourism industry itself. As awareness of climate change becomes increasingly important, tourists are seeking sustainable travel options, which can encourage mountain destinations to adopt more environmentally friendly practices
