Based on an “extended producer responsibility” perspective, this study aims to propose a model proposal for analyzing the phenomena of "tourist responsibility," which has been overlooked in tourism literature and practice. A literature review on responsible tourism is conducted in this study. The factors that have an average environmental impact on a tourist journey are identified, and a model proposal is made for calculating the environmental load that each of these factors causes. According to the literature, as tourism became aware of the negative effects of tourism on the environment, it began focusing on ways to reduce the sector's externalities. Tourists, as consumers, should also participate in the sustainable process. As a result, there is a need for a calculating approach that can concretely quantify tourist responsibility. The model proposal takes a realistic applicability perspective to create awareness about the environmental impacts that tourists will have and to take responsibility according to the "polluter pays" principle in mitigating tourism's effects. In practice, despite the growing body of theoretical literature on responsible tourism, the question of how to deliver responsible tourism remains unanswered. Using the concept of extended producer responsibility, this article proposes a paradigm in which tourists' responsibilities are raised to close the gap.

Bu çalışma, “genişletilmiş üretici sorumluluğu” perspektifinden hareketle, turizm literatüründe ve pratiğinde göz ardı edilen “turist sorumluluğu” olgusunun analizine yönelik bir model önerisi sunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada sorumlu turizm ile ilgili bir literatür taraması yapılmıştır. Bir turist yolculuğunda ortalama çevresel etkiye sahip faktörler dikkate alınarak bu faktörlerin neden olduğu çevresel yükün hesaplanması için bir model önerisinde bulunulmuştur. Literatüre göre turizm, turizmin çevre üzerindeki olumsuz etkilerinin farkına vardıkça, sektörün dışsallıklarını azaltmanın yollarına odaklanmaya başlamıştır. Tüketiciler olarak turistler de sürdürülebilir sürece katılmalıdır. Sonuç olarak, turist sorumluluğunu somut olarak ölçebilecek bir hesaplama yaklaşımına ihtiyaç vardır. Model önerisi, turistlerin sahip olacağı çevresel etkiler konusunda farkındalık yaratmak ve turizmin etkilerinin azaltılmasında "kirleten öder" ilkesine göre sorumluluk almak için gerçekçi bir uygulanabilirlik perspektifi benimsemektedir. Uygulamada, sorumlu turizm üzerine artan teorik literatüre rağmen, sorumlu turizmin nasıl sağlanacağı sorusu cevapsız kalmaktadır. Genişletilmiş üretici sorumluluğu kavramını kullanan bu çalışma, boşluğu doldurmak için turistlerin sorumluluklarının yükseltildiği bir paradigma önermektedir.
