positive, but most of the time it is negative For example, a large number of visitors in one destination
can cause bad effects on the environment The question is, how can we minimize the problems while still allowing people to travel and visit places?

is necessary so that the tourists can stay and benefit the local community financially However, it’s
difficult to avoid damaging the environment and develop local tourism at the same time Eco-tourism
can only develop in the right way if governments can deal with the negative effects and make sure that modern improvements benefit the local people and environment, not just the tourists
