Sustainability Attitude Trends





In recent years, sustainability and environmental care have gained significant importance. Travelers are more aware of the harm they can cause to the environment, and many of them take actions to mitigate or prevent such damage.


What are these actions that European travelers take during their journeys to protect the environment?


Offsetting CO2 Emissions from Travel:

  • January 2022: 7.44%
  • August 2022: 9.05%
  • January 2023: 8.94%
  • August 2023: 9.32%

Choosing to Travel by Train or Bus Instead of by Plane:

  • January 2022: 18.54%
  • August 2022: 21.40%
  • January 2023: 21.99%
  • August 2023: 30.31%



Demographics of Travelers Who Offset CO2 Emissions (August 2023):


In this particular scenario, we can discern a clear trend within the demographic profile of the buyer persona who displays a keen interest in and actively participates in efforts to offset CO2 emissions. The data indicates that this environmentally conscious group predominantly comprises men falling within the age range of 25 to 34 years.

Furthermore, it's worth emphasizing that this eco-conscious action of offsetting CO2 emissions is notably more prevalent among the younger generation, specifically individuals aged between 18 and 44 years. This demographic alignment suggests that the younger population is taking a proactive stance in addressing environmental concerns, highlighting their strong commitment to sustainability and their role in driving positive change in this crucial domain.




Weight of Ecological Impact in Destination Choice

In this graph, we can observe how in the second half of 2023, the significance of ecological impacts for environmental conservation in the choice of travel destination has significantly increased. It is evident that the most influential factor in the decision of where to travel is the availability of a direct flight to that destination.





Evolution of CO2 Offset by Year/Country


Regarding the data from August 2023, France has shown the most distinct trend towards active CO2 compensation. However, in previous waves of data, it was the country lagging behind in this regard. The Nordic countries maintain a consistent increase in this action throughout the data waves, as do the Netherlands, albeit to a slightly lesser degree.
