Influencing individual behaviour and informing effective governance is an essential part of climate change mitigation and there is a need for a sound understanding of the psychology and social factors that surround contemporary tourism and travel mobilities.

It provides a more informed understanding of how technology and infrastructure can be developed in order to reach stronger mitigation goals whilst ensuring that resistance from consumers for socio-psychological reasons are minimized.
