• With 43% believing governments hold the most potential for countering economic impacts of travel, and 41% thinking travel service providers hold the key to counteracting the environmental factors, these new insights illuminate the need for increased collaboration to remedy nascent consumer feelings of powerlessness and ensure the continued prioritization of a more sustainable travel industry
