Sustainable futures. Eco tourism issues

Description

Considering pollution from aviation industry and the cost of green air travel, sustainable tourism is a challenge. Despite the setbacks, eco-tourism is growing, supporting economies and conservation efforts of many countries. The Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park unites communities and ecosystems between South Africa and Mozambique that had been divided by colonial borders. Whale watching tours in Australia and nature reserves in Hong Kong and Bangladesh are important destinations for tourists, while the United Kingdom is seeing sustainable entrepreneurship in connection to its well-established culture of rock festivals.
