Abstract
This research project is about the impact climate change will have on tourism industry of the Wadden-area, and if and how tourism industry adapt to it. It will specialize on Lauwersmeer area, in the Netherlands and make a comparison with Greetsiel in Germany. Both places are situated at the coast and are quite similar areas. Climate change has effect on (tourism industry of the) Wadden-area, but tourism industry affects as well climate change by producing CO2 emission. If coastal tourism is ready for the next generation, depends mainly on the sustainability of the tourism industry. Adaptation measures to climate change, will contribute to a sustainable development of the tourism industry. It can be concluded that tourism industry is not enough aware and adapting to the effects of climate change. There is a gap between what the experts state about climate change and how tourism industry deals with it.
