The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a special report in 2018 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 a growing awareness of climate change people are becoming more environmentally conscious. As a result, the demand for more sustainable travel options increases. According to the source, as of March 2020, 41 percent of travelers in the United States stated that they do not know how or where to find sustainable travel options.
