Q. In underdeveloped countries, tourism has disadvantages and can be said the opposite as well. Do you agree to it?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ans. <\/strong>There is no ounce of doubt that tourism is an important sector for all nations. Although it does bring a lot of benefits in terms of boosting the economy, I agree that tourism in underdeveloped countries has downsides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the major ill impacts of tourism is environmental degradation. This is a result of activities tourists often engage in that harm the environment such as littering, destroying the vegetation by walking over it and disturbing the wildlife. This causes loss of biodiversity, soil erosion and pollution. For example, coral reefs have witnessed damage from litter and sunscreens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, tourism is known for causing economic inequality. Some people benefit from the incoming tourists but many others feel left out. This causes social tensions and conflicts within the community. Local businesses might feel that they are not able to compete with foreign brands causing a concentration of wealth.  Furthermore, tourism can also lead to overreliance on one single industry. This makes the local economy prone to fluctuations that can happen because of tourist arrivals. This can be affected by factors such as economic recession, political instability and natural disasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To conclude, although tourism brings a lot of benefits, it has significant disadvantages as well. That is why underdeveloped countries need to follow sustainable tourism practices to mitigate these negative impacts that ensure tourism and contribute positively to their development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
