In 2018, the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a special report stating that the world has just over a decade to restrict global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, beyond which the risk of floods, droughts and extreme heat will significantly worsen. With the awareness of climate change some people are becoming more environmentally conscious. According to the source, as of February 2022, 78 percent of travelers are intending to stay at least once in an eco-friendly or green accommodation when looking at the year ahead. This figure reflects a decrease over the previous year.
