New Zealand's Queenstown Lakes district aims to achieve carbon-zero tourism by 2030. This involves electrifying tour boats, cutting waste, and reshaping experiences for net zero emissions. Businesses are adopting eco-friendly measures like carbon tracking, electric vehicles, and compostable toilets. The region seeks "high-contributing visitors" for sustainable, immersive travel. It hopes to set an example for global sustainable tourism amid rising travel numbers. Travelers are urged to minimize waste, use sustainable transport, and stay longer in fewer places.
