Abstract
- Projected greenhouse gas induced climate change may alter the frequency and intensity of events like heat waves, drought and fires which affect tourists in the Mediterranean. The summer of 2003 is used as an example of the impact of climate on tourists to the area. Tourists' reactions and the possible adaptive responses that the tourist industry might adopt are considered. The sustainability of tourism in the future is also investigated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
