11In Bali , land that was previously used for [blank_start]farming[blank_end] is now being used to set up [blank_start]tourist developments[blank_end]. This means that less food is produced [blank_start]locally[blank_end] as well as resulting in a [blank_start]loss of culture[blank_end]. In the village of [blank_start]Ubhud[blank_end] , the historic [blank_start]temple[blank_end] is no longer surrounded by [blank_start]rice fields[blank_end] and locals can no longer [blank_start]afford to live[blank_end] in the area. Tourists are [blank_start]insensitive[blank_end] to local culture and [blank_start]infrastructure[blank_end] cannot keep up with demand. This has resulted in the river being [blank_start]polluted[blank_end] which puts even more strain on the existing water supply as tourists use [blank_start]3x more water than locals[blank_end]. [blank_start]Investment[blank_end] has to come from abroad which means that less of the money is going to the [blank_start]local people[blank_end].

12In the Great Barrier Reef, there are many [blank_start]environmental[blank_end] problems that have been caused by the [blank_start]increase[blank_end] in tourism. [blank_start]Anchoring[blank_end] from the boats disturbs the fragile ecosystem while [blank_start]waste[blank_end],litter and [blank_start]boats[blank_end] are all [blank_start]polluting[blank_end] the ocean. [blank_start]Overfishing[blank_end] and [blank_start]snorkelling[blank_end] are also damaging the environment. The Great Barrier Reef [blank_start]Marine Park Authority[blank_end] have put in [blank_start]zoning[blank_end] plans in place , which include entirely '[blank_start]green areas[blank_end]' as well as areas that only [blank_start]traditional[blank_end] fishing methods can take place. [blank_start]Patrol boats[blank_end] regularly monitor the area and issue [blank_start]fines[blank_end] if necessary. Companies also need to obtain [blank_start]permits[blank_end] if they want to take tourists [blank_start]fishing[blank_end] and [blank_start]diving[blank_end].

13The Lake district national park has a [blank_start]resident[blank_end] population of [blank_start]42,000[blank_end]. It recieves [blank_start]12 million[blank_end] visitors annually. This leads to severe [blank_start]traffic[blank_end] congestion on the [blank_start]M6[blank_end]. The [blank_start]speedboat[blank_end] racing along with many other watersports destroys the environment and makes the area [blank_start]noisy[blank_end] for the local residents. Tourists have also [blank_start]eroded footpaths[blank_end] and the increase in buying [blank_start]second homes[blank_end] has resulted in a loss of [blank_start]community[blank_end]. It is being managed by the [blank_start]Lake District National Park Authority[blank_end] who refuses [blank_start]planning[blank_end] permission for any conflict causing activities. It is also working to improve traffic [blank_start]management[blank_end], as well as [blank_start]listening[blank_end] and [blank_start]building[blank_end] homes for the locals. The LDNPA also employs [blank_start]park rangers[blank_end] and repair the [blank_start]footpath damage[blank_end]d caused by the tourists.

14In Cuba, the increase of tourism meant that there wasn't enough room in [blank_start]hotels[blank_end] so the [blank_start]government[blank_end] started a scheme to get the tourists [blank_start]staying with local people[blank_end] instead of getting big tourism companies to [blank_start]invest[blank_end], which could lead to big [blank_start]debts[blank_end]. In [blank_start]South Africa[blank_end] many tourists are beginning to stay with tribes on [blank_start]game[blank_end] reserves.

15In the Caribbean, tourism has destroyed the coastal environment where large areas of [blank_start]coastal forest[blank_end] have been cleared for resorts. [blank_start]Deforestation[blank_end] inland has had to happen to provide [blank_start]homes[blank_end] and wood for the locals. [blank_start]Human waste[blank_end] is dumped in the sea and can wash up onto the beach. This causes [blank_start]visual[blank_end] pollution, [blank_start]health[blank_end] risks and can also destroy [blank_start]marine[blank_end] habitats.

16After WW2, Blackpool had [blank_start]17 million[blank_end] visitors per year which meant it economy grew dependent on [blank_start]tourism[blank_end]. Between [blank_start]1979[blank_end] and [blank_start]1998[blank_end] visitor numbers declined which led to [blank_start]depopulation[blank_end] as people were forced to sell homes and move away. [blank_start]Prices[blank_end] were lowered in the hotels which led to [blank_start]lower spending[blank_end] customers being attracted, and increase in [blank_start]stag and hen[blank_end] nights and a general increase in [blank_start]antisocial[blank_end] behaviour. There were high [blank_start]unemployment[blank_end] rates, an increase in [blank_start]poverty[blank_end] and all of the [blank_start]boarded up[blank_end] buildings led to a [blank_start]lack of pride[blank_end] in the area, which discouraged more tourists from visiting. This is known as a [blank_start]negative[blank_end] multiplier effect.

In [blank_start]Costa Rica[blank_end], [blank_start]National[blank_end] Parks and forest reserves have been created which helps to conserve the environment . The '[blank_start]buffer zones[blank_end]' and wildlife refuges also attracts [blank_start]nature[blank_end] lovers who are willing to spend lots of [blank_start]money[blank_end] to give to the locals. The [blank_start]Lapos Ricos[blank_end] Eco Lodge provides [blank_start]bird watching[blank_end] walks and [blank_start]gourmet[blank_end] meals , all with no impact on the environment. With the rainforest ecosystem [blank_start]adventure[blank_end] tourism has also been developed with activities like [blank_start]white water rafting[blank_end], [blank_start]canoeing[blank_end] and zipwires through the forest. There are no [blank_start]TNCs[blank_end] present which means more money is going directly to the [blank_start]local[blank_end] people.
