Climate Action in Tourism: A Guide for a Sustainable Gdańsk

Tourism is one of the most vital sectors shaping the development of Gdańsk – yet it is also one of those most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. In response to growing environmental challenges, we have developed the e-book „Climate Action in Tourism” – a practical guide for the industry, partners, event organizers, and everyone interested in responsible travel.

The publication explains in an accessible way how tourism affects the climate, how global changes impact Gdańsk, and how – through daily choices and strategic decisions – we can create a lower-emission destination that is resilient to future challenges.

In the e-book, you will find, among others:

-an overview of the largest emission sources in tourism,
-recommendations for hotels, restaurateurs, tour operators, and event planners,
-tips for tourists – how to travel responsibly,
-guidelines on communicating climate-friendly actions and avoiding greenwashing,
-the core principles of the Gdańsk Tourism Organization's Climate Strategy.


This material is designed to inspire, educate, and support the industry in implementing real change. We invite you to download the e-book and join us in acting for a more sustainable future for Gdańsk.
