In the
last
years, A lot of people has become saying the negative effects of tourism
on countries. I totally agree with the non-beneficial effects on local people living at the tourist attractions. This
statement will explain how true this
statement is and what tourists can do to avoid being harmful for the environment.
Firstly
, One of the worst effects of tourism
is related about environmental perspective. In some tourist attractions, it can be seen that tourists cause pollution and waste in the local regions. This
damage puts pressure on local resources like food, water and energy. As a solution of the problem, people should think about where they go on holiday and avoid places that are already overcrowded.
Secondly
, one other crucial effect of tourists is on cultural perspective. Because of the huge amount of income from tourism
industry to local people, the industry force people to work for them in local places. As a result
, some local traditions may be lost or traditional jobs and skills could die out. At that point, governments have a significant role in preserving these values of publics. However
, also
people can do some things beneficial about the problem. Such
as when they decide to go holiday they might google information about the culture of a region, and respect the culture and avoid such
offensive behaviour.
In conclusion, there are lots of bad effects of tourism
industry such
as environmental, cultural and also
economic. However
, we have a chance to fix the problems which we cause. Besides
that, we always should be careful about our world’s values and people who live on it.Submitted by Yağmur Yıldız on
