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 growing, people are becoming more environmentally conscious. According to the source, as of April 2019, almost three quarters (72 percent) of travelers believed that people need to act now and make sustainable travel choices to save the planet for future generations.
