Travellers Reject Responsible Travel

In a somewhat depressing survey conducted by Mintel 1000 people were questioned on their attitude to responsible travel. It was found that a third of people had no interest in environmental issues, 17% of which actively didn’t want to think about how their travels could impact their holiday destination. Only 1 in 5 of people said that it was important that their visit benefited local communities. Many other statistics were pulled up in this report, demonstrating there is still a long way to go before we can really expect responsible travel to be a commonplace phenomenon.
