International tourism has brought enormous benefit to many places. At the same time, there is concern about its impact on local inhabitants and the environment. Do the disadvantages of international tourism outweigh the advantages?

The impact, whether positive or negative, of ,

tourism

is a global phenomenon with its

advantages

and

disadvantages

. In my view the

disadvantages

are important but we can change them and that's why I agree with the idea that the

advantages

outweigh the bad consequences. Regarding

this

, I will outline below the

advantages

and

disadvantages

and after ,

this

I will set my position with my reasons.

First

of all, one clear advantage of

tourism

is its impact on the economy. No matter if we look at

this

economic activity regarding the Nation or the Municipalities, the money that

tourism

gives is a lot. Following

this

idea, due to ,

tourism

we can see how investing creates work for local inhabitants and that's one of the most important things for a town,

also

the economy moves there with the opening of markets for visitors.

In addition

,

tourism

is a social need so we can not struggle with it but gain from it. There are plenty of

disadvantages

, namely. Housing increases, because sometimes the tourist migrate to those towns.

Also

, tourists don't mind the environment so often.

For instance

, we can see how the beaches are full of trash after vacations and holidays in Cartagena.

Consequently

, tourists aren't conscious of respecting local animals and plants on the Caribbean coast. In a recent ,study it was said that the number of maritime animals has been decreasing due to

tourism

and hotels.

Finally

, in my ,view I firmly believe that the

disadvantages

are important but we can change them and that's why I agree with the idea that the

advantages

outweigh the bad consequences. One

first

thing we can do is encourage governments to apply more restrictions on Hotels, making them more responsible through environmental permits and

also

Institutions can make Public policies for tourist areas teaching visitors about the local ecosystem. To sum up, we can not change how people travel but we can improve the way we do that and make

tourism

more sustainable.
