A number of these reports will be produced and aimed at different business\u00a0sectors. It is hoped they will show that <a title=\"Tourism and Climate Change\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cisl.cam.ac.uk\/Resources\/Climate-and-Energy\/FAQs-on-the-IPCC-Briefings.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">climate change is everyone's business<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Key findings of importance on the Manhood Peninsula show that tourism is exposed to numerous direct and indirect impacts from climate change such as sea level rise and changing precipitation. These can affect tourism demand. However it is also felt that these changes are likely to create opportunities at both the destination and business level, matters that were explored during the Chichester Coastal Change Pathfinder Project a few years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Travel and tourism can carry a heavy penalty in terms of emissions from long haul travel that contribute to the warming process. Lifestyle changes can help mitigate these effects, and suggestions include a reduction in the demand for long-haul tourism in favour of holidaying more locally, which would certainly work in favour of the visitor economy on peninsula.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Follow this link to read <a title=\"Climate Change_Implications for Tourism\" href=\"https:\/\/peninsulapartnership.org.uk\/abd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/IPCC_AR5__Implications_for_Tourism-2014.pdf\">Climate Change: Implications for Tourism<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Follow this link to read more about the <a title=\"IPCC\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cisl.cam.ac.uk\/Resources\/Climate-and-Energy\/FAQs-on-the-IPCC-Briefings.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new document has been produced by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
