Abstract

Global warming has been closely associated with vehicle choices of tourists. 96.3% of environment stress of international conference is owing to transport emissions of attendees. But studies on MICE transportation are concentrated on that air transport emissions of participants have an impact on environment, vehicle choices of attendees are ignored. Taking Chengdu as an example, the paper conducted researches on carbon dioxide emission characteristics of MICE in cities, by employing transport carbon emissions measurement on the basis of low-carbon economic theory. Moreover, in the paper, the following results were found: 38.84% of the attendees tended to take public transport and the left 49.24% the private transport, carbon dioxide emission from the 38.84% was only 7% of that from the 49.24%; the attending frequency was closely related to transport choice for attendees; There are differences in which attendees chose vehicles between Chengdu portal, hotels and exhibition venues. Above all, combining with scenario analysis, the transport carbon dioxide emission strategies in Chengdu were concluded to enrich the field of researches about MICE transportation carbon emissions.
