What are the good and bad points to tourism?

Answer 1

Some negative effects are obvious, use of fuel and emissions from vehicles including cars, aircraft, ships.

Positive aspects are less certain. For business and trade certainly necessary. For education and political purposes, a lot of unnecessary travel takes place but difficult to decide what is worthwhile and what is not. For vacations and tourism, who is to say what benefits the traveller? Many lives have been enriched by travel, on the other hand many areas of the world have been and are still being ruined by it, and local inhabitants debauched by easy tourist money.
