In the face of rapid industrialisation in the last few decades, the
tourism economy has blossomed into a major industry with positive
impacts such as economic growth, infrastructure development,
employment, and income generation. However, tourism brings negative
environmental effects such as degradation of landscapes and
habitats, increased vulnerability of avifauna and wildlife, and
pollution leading to the decline of species. Environmental Impacts
of Tourism in Developing Nations is a pivotal reference source that
explores some of the critical challenges faced in the tourism
economy particularly with regard to the impacts on the environment
in developing nations. It also explores the impact tourism plays in
the biophysical environment such as the issue of climate change.
While highlighting topics such as environmental justice,
ecosystems, and ecotourism, this book is ideally designed for
academicians, policymakers, environmentalists, tourism
professionals, and graduate-level students seeking current research
on the environmental and economic impacts of tourism.
