Phuket town is experiencing enormously growth in tourism industry and large population growth, with a focus on urban areas. This growth may be causing changes in the relationship of human and environment. A challenge with respect to urban form in Phuket is that infrastructure, once developed, can lead to a form of path dependency with respect to energy use and may constrain both mitigation strategies and adaptation capabilities for climate change (Chen et al., 2011; Seto and Shepherd, 2009).
