The Low Carbon Tourism Report for Greater Manchester and The Manchester Framework for Tourism Carbon Accounting were conducted by the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, providing a detailed analysis of carbon emissions from tourism in Greater Manchester, and the methodology for other destinations to assess their own carbon impact.

The Sustainable Tourism Action Plan (STAP) has been developed to set out a work scheme to help achieve the GM Visitor Economy Strategy key target of being a top 40 city on the Global Destination Sustainability Index, and the number one city in England.
