Tourism is a modern form of colonialism. It distorts local economies, causes environmental damage, ruins the places it exploits. To what extent do you agree?

I firmly agree with this notion, tourism degrades local economies through the creation of a monoculture solely based on tourism, which can undermine traditional livelihoods, and, also induces a heavy strain on natural resources, pollution, and damage to the fragile ecosystems caused by influx of tourists.
