Abstract

This chapter delves into the intricate relationship between sustainable practices in tourism and consumer law, emphasizing the critical role that legal frameworks play in promoting and safeguarding sustainable tourism. As the global tourism industry faces mounting pressure to reduce its environmental footprint and foster social responsibility, understanding the legal implications and protections for consumers becomes increasingly vital. The chapter explores how consumer law can be leveraged to ensure that tourism practices adhere to sustainability principles, offering protections against green washing and misleading environmental claims. It examines key legislative measures, regulatory standards, and case law that shape the landscape of sustainable tourism, providing a comprehensive analysis of how these legal tools can incentivize ethical business practices and enhance consumer trust. . By bridging the gap between sustainability and consumer rights, this chapter aims to contribute to a more responsible and legally robust tourism industry.
