As part of its 2050 net zero emission commitment, Canada has a mandate to transition electric vehicles (EVs) decarbonize transportation. While the EV charging infrastructure is expanding in urban areas, for inter-city and nature-based tourism not been assessed. This study combined four metrics feasibility convenience into an readiness index evaluate 94 road trip itineraries associated with Canada’s iconic national parks. Index scores ranged from possible (0) equal travel experience internal combustion vehicle (20). With summer range, average one-day route score was 19.2, as 82% could be completed without requiring additional charging. Multi-day routes scored lower (14.0), 24% being highly inconvenient or impossible due gaps between stations. reduced winter one- multi-day trips declined needs increased (18.4 13.2, respectively). Across routes, EVs were estimated produce only 17% carbon dioxide emissions (this much some provinces). The findings also highlight key regional differences where needed provide equitable access parks tourists seeking their holiday travel.

Mountain landscapes and communities are highly sensitive vulnerable to climate change. Tourism in mountain regions is dependent on natural resources attractions which very climatic changes. This systematic review analyzing 276 papers, provides a comprehensive analysis of scientific literature dealing with change impacts tourism. While the snow season predominantly negative, summer activities range from positive negative. Contradictory results lack research some tourism means overall impact far clear. We identified seven key knowledge gaps: underrepresentation studies for South America Africa, appropriate data indicators, an all-season perspective investigation opportunities, economic socio-political consequences communities, need better science communication, addressing liability regulatory risks. Increasing our multidisciplinary understanding potential engaging stakeholders prepare projected changes will help local populations create applicable effective adaptation strategies.
