Please join us for a public seminar by Professor Morihiko Kinjo and Kohei Miyagi, Department of Tourism Sciences and Industrial Management, University of Ryukyus, Okinawa, Japan
Hawaii’s tourism industry appears to have some untapped potential to reduce CO2 emissions, say tourism science experts Kinjo and Miyagi. Their current study uses embodied coefficient and input-output analysis to measure CO2 emissions produced by industries that support tourism in Hawaii. Their method estimates the CO2 emissions for each industry plus emissions from supporting industries. The method presents perhaps a truer picture than other methods of greenhouse gas emissions from the tourism sector. Kinjo and Miyagi will share their findings, including how Hawaii’s accommodations, food, and beverage industries have the potential to reduce emissions in the area of energy consumption.
Free admission
