Climate change can lead to increased risk of flooding and erosion, changes in temperature and humidity, and increased frequency of extreme weather events, all of which can damage cultural heritage. However, it does not generally lead to improved preservation conditions.

Cultural tourism can contribute to mitigating climate change by raising awareness about the issue, promoting sustainable practices in tourism, and generating revenue for conservation efforts.

While using energy-efficient lighting and appliances, reducing waste and pollution, and promoting the use of public transportation are all sustainable practices in cultural tourism, encouraging visitors to buy souvenirs made from local materials is not necessarily sustainable, as it may contribute to the depletion of local resources.

However, increased demand for cultural tourism is not generally considered an impact of climate change.

Carbon offsetting, carbon neutrality, and climate-friendly tourism are all terms used to describe the process of reducing the carbon footprint of cultural tourism.

Increased awareness of cultural heritage, generation of revenue for conservation efforts, and promotion of cultural diversity are all potential benefits of cultural tourism for cultural heritage. However, increased risk of damage to cultural heritage is not generally considered a benefit.

Sustainable cultural tourism, responsible tourism, and ecotourism are all terms used to describe the process of promoting cultural tourism in a sustainable manner.
