The World Leisure Commission on Tourism and the Environment

The relationships between ‘‘tourism and the environment’’ have recently attracted a great deal of academic interest, with significant publications by Richard Sharpley, Tourism Development and the Environment (2009) and John Urry, Climate Change and Society (2011) being notable examples. Key themes include: sustainability, globalisation, impacts on both rural and urban environments, environmental planning and management, social tourism and ethics, disasters, climate change, and the growing interest in diverse forms of mobility. Forthcoming publications include Andrew Holden and David Fennell’s edited volume, the Routledge Handbook of Tourism and the Environment (2012) and Susanne Becken and John Hay’s Climate Change and Tourism (2012). So that readers may see the author’s own perspective on the relations between tourism and the environment, recent works have included Understanding Tourism with Dan Knox (2010) and Tourism and India with Anya Diekmann (2011), as well as contributions to edited collections such as Warwick Frost’s Tourism and Zoos (2010) and Brent Lovelock’s Tourism and the Consumption of Wildlife (2007). Also co-edited by the author is the Routledge journal, Mobilities, with Mimi Sheller and John Urry, which publishes theoretically informed work examining the large-scale movements of people, objects, capital, and information across the world, as well as more local processes of daily transportation, movement through public and private spaces, and the travel of material things in everyday life (Hannam, Sheller & Urry, 2006). Utilising the aforementioned frameworks offered in the literature cited above, the World Leisure Commission on Tourism and the Environment (WLCTE) has been developed with the following objectives:
