ABSTRACT

Few industries have expanded quicker over the past 50 years than tourism. It has brought employment to millions, and given delight, variety, peace and recreation to many numbers of travelers and holiday makers. At the same time, it has crushed and polluted pristine environments, jeopardize local cultures, and often devalued just those characteristics of a spot that had made it a desirable tourist objective. The issues that tourism raises are of critical and vital importance throughout the world: the book provides a geographical perspective upon them.
It focuses on the inter-relationship between the production and the consumption of tourism and, in so doing, seeks to understand the ways in which tourism shapes and reshapes human and physical environments. We analyze the aspects key of the tourism and leisure industries, and place them in the context of changing social, political and economic structures and behaviour. The economic effects of tourism include improved tax revenue and personal income, increased standards of living, and more employment opportunities.
Environmental impacts can have both direct effects including degradation of habitat, vegetation, air quality, bodies of water, the water table, wildlife, and changes in natural phenomena, and indirect effects, such as increased harvesting of natural resources to supply food, indirect air and water pollution (including from flights, transport and the manufacture of food and souvenirs for tourists). Tourism also brings positive and negative health outcomes for local people. The short-term negative impacts of tourism on residents' health are related to the density of tourist's arrivals, risk of disease transmission, road accidents, the greater levels of crime, as well as traffic congestion, crowding, and other stressful factors. At the same time, there are positive long-term impacts of tourism on residents’ health and well-being outcomes through improving healthcare access positive emotions, novelty, and social interactions.
