Impacts of Tourism?

The lesson looked at the impact of tourism within the Case study area of the Peak District National Park in an MEDC. The lesson helped develop skills of decision making based on evidence below and deciding if the development should be built! It also started to think about ways we can manage the tourists and the problems that they bring.

They will be climbing at least 6,500 metres (22,000 feet) above sea level. The China Association for Scientific Expedition, said the waste was damaging the mountain's ecological balance. "Much waste left behind has resulted in a worsened ecological situation there," the group's president Gao Dengyi was quoted as saying. The rubbish has accumulated over decades of mountaineering. Between 1921 and 1960, there were just 15 expeditions to the 8,848 metre-high (29,500 feet-high) peak that straddles Nepal and Tibet. Now, around 20,000 people are believed to visit the region every year.
