Why is it important?

A lot of sustainable tourism research focuses on traditional hospitality contexts. With the growing importance of peer-to-peer accommodation and other self-catering accommodation options, it is necessary to conduct research on how to best influence tourist behaviors outside of the realm of professional tourism providers.

Perspectives

I had no idea how much of a problem household food waste was before working on this paper. We can't achieve sustainable tourism without tackling this problem.
