Abstract

As one of the important sectors of tourism, the accommodation industry’s carbon emission has become a hot research topic in emission reduction. This research constructs a research framework from the perspective of the supply chain and analyzes the carbon emissions of China’s tourist hotels including the supply chain from 2002 to 2019. The research results show that: (1) The direct carbon emissions of Chinese tourist hotels are on the rise, while the indirect carbon emissions are on the decline. (2) The carbon emissions of most provinces in the west of the Huhuanyong Line are on the rise, while the carbon emissions of most provinces in the east show an inverted U-shaped curve that rises first and then falls, which conforms to the environmental Kuznets curve. (3) There is the Engel coefficient effect in tourist hotels, and food manufacturing and tobacco processing industry are the main sources of indirect carbon emissions. (4) The indirect carbon emissions of the hotel are developing well, and it is expected to take the lead in decoupling hotels through indirect carbon emissions. This paper aims to provide scientific and technological tools and support for the precise management and regulation of the carbon peak of tourist hotels and provide a reference for the development of the hotel in China and similar countries with new economies.
