The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a special report in 2018 stating that the world has just over a decade to restrict global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, beyond which the risk of floods, droughts, and extreme heat will significantly worsen. With a growing awareness of climate change, people are becoming more environmentally conscious. As of a February 2023 survey, 99 percent of Indian respondents stated that sustainable travel was important, making it the country with the highest share of travelers that believe in the importance of green travel. During the same survey, a lower share of global travelers believed that sustainable travel was important.
