| Description |
The purpose of this study is to empirically explore the relationship between inbound tourism growth and carbon emission in Maldives. Ordinary Least Square method was used to investigate the correlation, and Granger Causality test was performed to test the long run relationship. Secondary data from 1984-2010 for Maldives have been used to carry out empirical tests. The study results) suggest statistically significant positive relationship between inbound tourism growth and carbon emission. The three individual models for indicators of inbound tourism growth and combination model of three indicators also show positive upward relationship. Studied data sets show no statistical evidence of long term relationship between inbound tourism growth and carbon emission.
