Abstract

Tourism provides both direct economic benefits and multiplier effects for other sectors of society. However, the management of Gedong Songo Temple, which focuses on increasing tourist numbers, tends to ignore the external impacts on the preservation of cultural heritage and the environment, necessitating a focus on sustainability principles. This study aims to determine the willingness to pay of tourists for the sustainable development of Gedong Songo Temple as a tourist attraction. Primary data was obtained based on interviews and questionnaires with 109 tourist respondents who visited Gedong Songo Temple. Respondents were selected using purposive sampling, and the analysis was conducted statistically using CVM. The results of this study show that according to the contingent valuation method, 98 of the 109 tourist respondents are willing to pay more for the development of the Gedong Songo Temple tourist attraction, with an average WTP value of IDR 28,000 per tourist and a total willingness to pay per year for the Gedong Songo Temple tourist attraction of IDR 7.9 billion. These results confirm that tourists appreciate conservation efforts, facility improvements, and increased comfort when visiting the Gedong Songo Temple tourist attraction.

Abstract

Environmental degradation is a manifestation of ecosystem damage caused by unsustainable activities, one of which is reflected in increased carbon emissions. This study aims to analyze the relationship between economic activities and environmental degradation in 10 member countries of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) using quantitative data from 2008 to 2022. The Panel VECM method was used to identify long-term and short-term relationships between variables. The estimation results indicate that, in the long term, population, electricity consumption, economic growth, FDI, and renewable energy consumption have a significant impact on carbon emissions. Conversely, total energy consumption and the HDI are not significant. These findings encourage the government to shift from fossil fuel use to new and renewable energy and minimize the conversion of green areas into residential areas. Additionally, fossil fuel use must be balanced with investments in new and renewable energy to control rising carbon emissions alongside economic activities.
