Balearic Islands’ new climate change law to reduce reliance on tourism

in travel •  6 years ago 

Spain’s Balearic Islands has approved a climate change law that commits the popular tourism destination to source all its energy from renewables by 2050.

Balearic Islands president Francina Armengol said the new law was “an opportunity to reinforce our brand as a sustainable destination”.

Balearic Islands energy minister Marc Pons reckons the law is part of a larger strategy to reduce the region’s reliance on tourism by fostering more diversification and less seasonality in the economy.

The Balearics welcome 14 million visitors annually. Traffic jams and pollution peak during summer, the high season.
