The Tourism industry is one of the world's largest industries and provides jobs to over 230 million people, accounting simultaneously for more than 10% of the world GDP. Amazing statistics, but it also has a downside. Tourism industry also brings a lot of negative effects on the travel destinations. Large parts of the revenues do not stay in the local economy but ends up in other countries, local cultures are pushed aside, nature and wildlife is being abused in a non-sustainable way and environment is suffering degradation.
