Description

This book is the first to address the important interrelationship between second homes and climate change, which has become an increasingly relevant issue for many regions around the world.

Second homes are often a key source of tourist visitation as well as economic benefit for their host communities.

The chapters provide an array of international case studies and climate change impacts, including the changing biocultural landscapes in Italy, hazard risks in the mountains of Poland, and the shifting media discussion on second homes and climate change in Finland.

Topics covered focus on issues around planning and governance in second home locations, adaptation and mitigation measures implemented by second home owners, and the influence of second home owners’ place attachment in relation to second home impacts.

It introduces the overall topic of second homes and climate change while also laying the groundwork for future work in this burgeoning area of research.

This book will be of significant interest to upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, and academics in the fields of geography, tourism, planning, housing studies, regional development, environmental management, and disaster management.

It would also be of use for professionals who engage with second home communities, particularly planners, government officials, and environmental officers.
