Nowadays tourists and scientists can travel to remote natural environments such as the SOUTH pole. Do you think the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?

but with all the infrastructure required to support tourism. When a remote area requires restaurants, hotels and wifi cables, among other amenities, it ceases to be a virgin area.

This

may have a negative impact on the local people living there, affecting their livelihood or way of life.

Similarly

, scientists may affect a pristine environment as well by setting up laboratories and tampering with the native flora and fauna. The development required to support scientific inquiry may compromise the environment, causing it to lose the very essence of what made it

appealing.
