The Role of Green tourists’ behaviours in reducing Climate changes in Egyptian tourist destination

The success of green tourism enterprises is not based solely on the distinctive natural and human components of the environment in which they operate and the tourism structures they own (Chan et al., 2014), But it is based primarily on the green tourist, who is considered the basic nucleus of green behaviour (Bin Ahmed, 2018). Green tourist behaviour is characterized by taking into account environmental considerations in the consumption process (Patwary et al., 2022), and through this one avoids dealing with products that threaten the safety of the individual and the environment and products that during their manufacture use large amounts of resources that harm the environment (Mutarrif and Karbali , 2021 ). Therefore, the research aims to identify the extent of tourists’ interest in climate change issues and to identify tourists’ green behaviours in Egyptian tourist destinations, which stem from their environmental awareness, tourists’ attitudes toward green products, and their degree of preference for using green technologies. The research aims to investigate the impact of these behaviours on reducing climate change in Egyptian tourist destinations. To achieve the objectives of the research, the descriptive and analytical approach was relied upon, and a tool was designed to collect primary data and distribute it to a sample of tourists. (403) survey forms were analyzed using SPSSV.20 program. The study found that there is a statistically significant relationship between the dimensions of green behavior of tourists and confronting climate change in the Egyptian tourist destination, and that the dimensions of green behavior affect the reduction of climate change by (40.9%). The study recommended the need for coordination between the Ministry of Tourism and the Ministry of Environment to raise awareness and reduce tourist wrong practices, educate tourists about preserving nature and contribute effectively to preserving the natural and cultural heritage of the tourist destination, and activate the plans and strategies developed by countries and governments to spread environmental awareness among the largest possible segment of targeted tourists regarding Green behaviour and finding a mechanism to increase the material resources allocated for this, and directing them towards the acquisition of green products.
