Tourist Ecodestruction, Dawn Destefano

Hospitality Graduate Student Scholarship

Many decades of over-tourism have laid the groundwork for the vast destruction of nature and a community’s natural resources and its infrastructure on a global scale.

With the financial health that a large number of visitors bring there is also the other side the problem of trying to balance the dollar with the destruction. This paper’s focus will explore the degree of damage caused by over-tourism in various global ecosystems.

Environmentally Friendly Industries: An Examination Of Ecotourism As The Solution To The Environmental Degradation Caused By The International Tourism Industry, Whitney Michael

Honors Theses – Charlotte Campus

The increasing visibility of ecological alterations due to global climate change have required high-impact industries to reexamine their environmental impact.
