Sara S asked:
It’s very urgent. Okay, I need to talk about transport, turism and the environment as in it is polluted etcetera.
The thing is: could someone traduce me this text I have made in english to german?
In this “Kurzreferat möchte ich über Transport, Tourismus und Umwelt sprechen”. Transport is a very big part in tourism and the environment. Without transport we could not travel so there would be no tourism. The bad thing about transport is that it pollutes. Nowadays, it exists tourism called “eco-tourism” that tries to focus on not polluting and not harming the planet but it all pollutes.
The transport that pollutes the least is the car. But you can’t go very far away with cars or motos.
Aeroplanes pollute the most, they emit harmful substances which make big holes in the atmosphere.
Tourism also contaminates visually. Places like Benidorm are now full of buildings which are not good looking, it just makes money but it doesn’t benefit the place at all.

Josh B asked:
My wife and I want to go away for 7 days/nights in February. We live in California, so we’re not trying to escape the cold. We’re not huge beach lovers, more into eco tourism, animal watching, relaxing. We love to eat. Right now we’re thinking of Hawaii, Singapore, Costa Rica.
Where’s nice in mid February? We like to be comfortable, but no need for 5 star hotels. We tend to use a hotel for the bed and shower. We get seasick, so no cruises please.
thanks!

Eco-tourism becoming the dominant form of tourism and supplanting other forms of tourism?
BB asked:
I need a solid law/right/treaty etc. for First Nations in BC (or Canada) that states that they cannot be displaced from their land without compensation or unknowingly etc. Or just so that this cannot happen:
Displacement of people
One of the most powerful examples of communities being moved in order to create a park is the story of the Masai. About 70% of national parks and game reserves in East Africa are on Masai land (Kamuaro, 2007). The first undesirable impact of tourism was that of the extent of land lost from the Masai culture. Local and national governments took advantage of the Masai’s ignorance on the situation and robbed them of huge chunks of grazing land, putting to risk their only socio-economic livelihood. In Kenya the Masai also have not gained any economic benefits. Despite the loss of their land, employment favours better educated workers. Furthermore the investors in this area are not local and have not put profits back into local economy. In some cases game reserves can be created without informing or consulting local people, who come to find out about the situation when an eviction notice is delivered (Kamuaro, 2007). Another source of resentment is the manipulation of the local people by their government. “Eco-tourism works to create simplistic images of local people and their uses and understandings of their surroundings. Through the lens of these simplified images, officials direct policies and projects towards the local people and the local people are blamed if the projects fail” (West, 2006). Clearly tourism as a trade is not empowering the local people who make it rich and satisfying. Instead ecotourism exploits and depletes, particularly in African Masai tribes. It has to be reoriented if it is to be useful to local communities and to become sustainable (Kamuaro, 2007).
I need a direct source! Thank you!!
