Taking 38 A-class scenic spots in the Dabie Mountains in Huanggang District as the research object, a low-carbon performance evaluation index system, which includes 4 first-class variables and 36 second-class variables, has thus been constructed, with the index weight to be determined by using the analytic hierarchy method, followed by a calculation of the low-carbon behavior performance (LCBP) of each scenic spot based on the weighing of questionnaire data, thus revealing the driving factors of tourism low-carbon behavior by using the redundancy analysis method. The results indicate that the average score of low-carbon behavior performance in the A-class scenic spot in Dabie Mountainous in Huanggang District is 3.64, reaching a high level, yet leaving much room for improvement; in the constructed indicator system of low-carbon behavior in scenic spots, there are significant gradient differences in 33 of the 36 indicators in the three groups of scenic spots (points) of A, B and C, with the low-carbon behavior performance of scenic spots positively correlated with scenic spots; the performance of low-carbon behavior in scenic spots is affected by a variety of factors, among which the government control and the perception of interest by scenic spot managers are the main driving factors for the low-carbon behavior of scenic spot tourism.
