摘要

可持续发展目标的目标15要求努力保护脆弱的山区生态系统。山区旅游产生的废物导致环境退化、生物多样性丧失，对实现这一目标构成重大挑战。山区的特点是不适合居住的地形和偏远，再加上目前的旅游实践，使这一挑战更加严峻。本文通过理解使用经典DEMATEL方法可持续管理废物的障碍来解决这一挑战。根据印度山地旅游业36位专家的数据，分析了不可生物降解废物可持续管理的障碍。结果表明，法规的执行、废物收集基础设施和废物转移运输的缺乏是最突出的障碍，可以通过综合利用四个有形障碍来缓解:游客的动机或成就心态、地方政府的主动性、废物的经济价值和游客缺乏环保意识。在此基础上，建议对游客进行山地旅游前的认证标准强制性政策干预。

Barriers to Sustainable Waste Management in Mountain Tourism

Goal 15 of the Sustainable Development Goals calls for efforts to protect fragile mountain ecosystems. Waste generated due to mountain tourism leads to environmental degradation, biodiversity loss, and poses a significant challenge to achieving this goal. Mountains which are characterized by uninhabitable terrain and remoteness, coupled with current tourism practices compound this challenge. The paper resolves this challenge by understanding barriers to sustainably manage waste using th Classical DEMATEL method. Based on data from 36 experts in India’s mountain tourism industry, barriers to sustainable management of non-biodegradable waste are analyzed. Results suggest that enforcement of regulations, waste collection infrastructure, and lack of transportation for waste transfer are the most prominent barriers that can be mitigated by collectively leveraging four tangible barriers: tourists’ motivation or achievement mentality, local government’s initiative, economic value of waste, and tourists’ lack of environmental awareness. Based on this, a policy intervention mandating certification standards for tourists is suggested before they embark on mountain tourism.
