27 IMPACT OF TOURISM Development in tourism produces both positive and negative impacts on natural resources, consumption patterns, pollution and social systems. The need for sustainable or responsible planning and management is imperative for the tourism sector to survive as awhole. A responsible stakeholder will pursue the economic benefits of tourism while maximising the positive impacts on the environment, society and culture upon which the industry is built. 27
28 IMPACT IMPACT OF OF TOURISM TOURISM Positive: Economic benefits: influx of foreign exchange tax revenues job opportunities Environmental values maintenance and development of "unspoiled natural resources establishment of national parks and protected areas Socio-cultural values traditional arts, crafts, and cultural practices preservation of historical sites and heritage buildings fostering tolerance and acceptance of different cultures Negative: Erosion of value and continued existence of environmental and socio-cultural assets e.g.: Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve, Honduras Petra in Jordan Angkor in Cambodia Through theft, development, climate change, or unsustainable tourism. This is true where tourism development is unregulated, fixed on volume growth, and focused only on short-term economic benefits. 28
