Where Hoteliers Feel Most Threatened by Climate Change
In the 2024 edition of the European Accommodation Barometer, the study has revealed that 41% of European hoteliers believe that climate change will have a high or very high impact on their business in the next 3 years
@Snoro This is a bit misleading. Impact does not equal threat.

This is of course separate from the question whether climate change is a threat generally (it is) and whether hoteliers see it as such (they probably do).
