You will prepare and submit a term paper on The Effectiveness and Use of Sustainable Tourism in the World. Your paper should be a minimum of 1000 words in length. Tourism is where a person or people travel to and stays at a place that is distinct from their usual environment, and stay there for any length of time between one night and one year. The purpose of tourism is frequently leisure, but it may also include aspects such as business and visiting friends or family (Page and Connell, 2006). Tourism has been increasing as an activity in recent years as the expendable income of many individuals has increased, as well as transportation between cities and countries becoming faster, cheaper and more efficient (Smith and Eadington, 1992). Tourism provides income and economic stability for many places as well as increasing how well known they are worldwide. For example, the state of Monaco has used tourism as its main source of income since the Second World War (D'Hauteserre, 2005). As a consequence, the state has fared very well economically, with one of the highest standards of living worldwide as well as a long life expectancy (Central Intelligence Agency, 2011). This shows that tourism can be an extremely important business venture, and indeed it is practiced worldwide.

In the 1990s tourism was seen as a low-impact venture that consumed little to no resources. This is because in many countries, especially those that are developing tourism makes use of areas that are not being used otherwise or are of low value (Goessling, 2000). However, there has been a growing realization that tourism is having a sign on the ecological environment as well as having strong social and cultural effects (Galvani, 2005). An example of this is gambling, which is a prevalent tourist activity, often taking place in casinos with entire resorts and communities designed around them. While these are effective as a tourist destination they also haven for prostitution and crime (Pizam and Pokela, 1985). Tourism also has a sign on indigenous populations, often taking advantage of their culture and customs for economic benefits.&nbsp.
