Abstract

Sustainability has been adopted as a global agenda for all development, especially as regards human activities on the environment. While climate change is as a result of human activities on the environment, tourism is a product of the environment harnessed by man. Yet limited research activities exist on the subject in the Nigerian context. This study forms the first part of future studies and hence, this study is a review of the theoretical findings linking climate change and sustainable tourism. Firstly, earlier research efforts are presented and the theoretical findings suggest a strong link between climate change and sustainable tourism and also identify the way forward for promoting sustainable development. Finally, the study advocates for more awareness/ education on the subject matter for all stakeholders, research collaborations and the promotion of strategies for managing processes leading to the promotion of sustainable tourism development in Nigeria.
