Must guest travel be included in a hotel's Bilan Carbone®?

1111 questions from 157 articles available in English.

Yes, in a complete Bilan Carbone®: guest travel falls under downstream scope 3 and typically accounts for 10 to 25% of a hotel’s emissions. The establishment has little direct control over this source, but it must not be excluded from the scope, since scope 3 accounts for 60 to 80% of the total. Opportunities exist particularly for sites far from transport links: a shuttle from the station, bicycle stations, public transport partnerships and guest information on ways to get there. Always specify the scope used when communicating a footprint per overnight stay.
