Is Climate Change Altering Humans' Vacation Plans?

Is Climate Change Altering Humans' Vacation Plans?

Summary- In the study recently of the nine parks that experienced significant increases in mean spring temperatures since 1979. In contrast, of the 18 parks without significant temperature changes, only three exhibited attendance shifts. “We can't say for sure that global warming is causing this swing in visitation trends," Buckley said. However someone has acknowledged that other factors -- such as population changes, economic trends, park popularity and travel costs influence park visitor numbers. However those are probably to have more of an impact on total annual visits.

Critique- It could be global warming that could be the change in the peoples numbers with vacations. The climate would just change on where people go.

Impact- This would only affect where and when people would go to places if the climate was is changing. It isn’t a big impact the only impact it has is where people go.
