Discussion: Socio-cultural impacts of tourism on the environment
I am currently studying the socio-cultural impacts of tourism on the environment. I understand the impacts that are placed on a community- both positive and negative however I am having trouble separating some of these conflict into what the positive and negative socio-cultural impacts are on our environment. The issue I need help with in about the environment, Resources are a conflict water, energy uses -stress to local environment can also result from environmental degradation and increased infrastructure costs for local community
Example: high taxes to pay for improvement to water supply or sanitation facilities
Conflicts for traditional land uses
Can you help me better define what the socio impacts of tourism are on the environment. Both positive and negative
