The ACT report, published in February 2025, provides an overview of the transition of tourism sectors towards sustainability in France. It highlights the significant carbon footprint of tourism, particularly from transportation, and assesses the effectiveness of current decarbonisation efforts. The report also provides recommendations for improving climate strategies, focusing on long-term goals and innovative measures such as electrification and energy-efficient practices. This initiative aims to support the sector in achieving a sustainable, low-carbon transition (The original piece available only in French).
