Ecotourism @ Destinations

Ecotourism @ Destinations: Tourism is one of the world’s largest and fastest growing industries, and according to the United Nations World Tourism Organization, over 800 million people travel internationally each year. Although the tourism industry does help maintain certain communities that otherwise would have no income, all of this globe-trotting has repercussions, such as increasing pollution and overwhelming resources at natural sites.
