Contemporary Issues in Sustainable Tourism Development

Tourism development leads in maintaining the balance between increasing number of tourism in the region and development of tourism. Nowadays tourism industry develops globally which leads in raising the number of employment opportunities as well as increasing income in the economy (Mihalic, 2016). Therefore, tourism development means developing the strategies, policies, plans to encourage and develop tourism in the economy. The reason of increasing the tourism is to enlarge the country’s GDP  (Budeanu, Miller, Moscardo, & Ooi, 2016).  Tourism is travel for pleasure or business; also the theory and practice of touring. Therefore, due to increase in the tourism development many problems arise to develop the industry in sustainable manner. Sustainable tourism development refers in increasing the tourist in the particular area by making the positive influence on the society, environment as well as on the economy. It is because it results in preventing the environment by adopting various strategies.

The reason of developing the tourism in sustainable manner because more tourism leads in effecting the climate change as well as also effect various factors of the environment. Therefore, various organizations adopt several policies in developing the sustainable tourism, but still challenges and issues faced by the industry (Ruhanen, Weiler, Moyle, & McLennan, 2015). In this, report two issues such as equality and economic growth topic are selected to understand the problems suffered by the tourism industry in the sustainable manner. The recommendations are provided to reduce the issues so that it will be expanded more effectively according to the demand and requirements of the economy. Therefore various stakeholders are involved in maintaining tourist efficiently by informing itself regarding the ethics, culture etc.

According to Mohammed environmental degradation has dominated the disclosure of the public in several countries (Mohammed, 2018). Therefore the tourism development leads in developing various strategies regarding the proper. Researchers demonstrate that sustainable tourism growth effects the climatic environment as well as to take various policies to overcome the issues. The study describes that there are several real life incidence which affects the environment in highly manner. Tourism is the main reason in reducing the natural habitat and putting high pressure on the endangered species.

The purpose is to examine the issue which the development of tourism in highly manner and to know the impact of sustainable development in the overall growth of environment (Mohammed, 2018). Researchers describe that all the activities regarding the tourism affects negatively in relation to the environment. Therefore, tourism results in the degradation of landscape. Tourism industry is selected by the researchers study believe that there is more growth and development in the economy. The purpose is to understand the main reason of impacting the environment as well as various problems because it is estimated that tourism development leads greater disturbance to the environment in comparison to other industries.

Impact of Sustainable Tourism Development on the Environment

The data is gathered from primary as well as secondary approach that is primary research is conducted through tourists, government, local residents it is because research is conducted for taking the insight of several stakeholders on the subject for the improvement of tourism (Mohammed, 2018). The researchers also used the sampling method by taking five communities in the study so that in-depth results should be achieved. The secondary data is collected by reviewing various articles to understand the major impact of tourism on the environment. The study is important because it also collect the data about the real life incidence that is to know the influence of tourism on the Lake Bosomtwe Basin.

Researchers demonstrate that sustainable tourism development is become the major concern in the recent era (Job, Becken, & Lane, 2017). It is because researchers estimated that 50% of the operations in the tourism industry is affected the environment efficiency. The study demonstrates that tourism is important in the present world but the various strategies should be developed to increase the overall development of the economy.

Researchers describe that tourism development impact negatively to the ecology that it influences the overall functioning of the economy (Higgins-Desbiolles, 2018). It is because of higher pollution, increases in the wastage of the resources as well as accelerated in discharging of the seas. Therefore the waste disposal system is become major issues in the destination of the tourist in the world.

The study revealed that various issues are lying which disturb the tourism development sustainable manner (Van der Zee & Vanneste, 2015). The study revealed that social, economic as well as environmental problems are significant which affects the operations of tourism. Through, investigating researchers finds that economic growth become major concern through which industry use more natural resource and increase the pollution in the country.

The study describes that stakeholders perceive that it leads in lowering several opportunities such as decrease the employment and reduce income in the country (Tekken & Kropp, 2015). This results in reducing the satisfaction level of the tourist. Government demonstrates that it increases the cost and other institutions finds that it leads in decreasing the tourist because of climatic problems etc.

The study describes that this development focuses on raising the rate of tourist in the particular region. This leads in increasing the GDP of the economy and increase in providing information to the tourist regarding the culture, ethics and philosophies of the local region. Therefore, economic development leads in providing the facilities to tourism industry to use all the resources of the economy. This results in raising problems regarding the more pollution in the economy, landscape degradation as well as increasing the waste regarding the accommodations of the tourist. Therefore, results also revealed that it sometimes increase the level of stress among the animals and leads alterations in the pattern of behavior.

Issues of Equality and Economic Growth in Sustainable Tourism Development

The study concludes that there is a negative consequence on the environment because of major reasons which is adopted for improving the tourism in the economy. Researchers conclude that it leads in increasing the noise, reduce the quality of the air, raise the water pollution and also results in raising the loss of biodiversity. Therefore in the emergence it leads in raising the ecological damage. Therefore, tourism industry uses various strategies which leads in increasing the growth tourism industry in the economy but the industry use various natural resources of the economy, this influence the future of economy in highly manner.

Through the analysis, I believe that this article is important because it gives the clear picture about the influence of tourism growth in the environment. Therefore, the study also describes various issues regarding the tourism which affects the operations of the tourism industry in the negative manner. Therefore, I also perceive that study does not provide the information about the degree of impact tourism development have on the environment. The study also reveals that ecological damage affects the lifestyle of different stakeholders in the economy because it generates inequality and increase the government expenditure.

According to Nutsugbodo, Amenumey, & Mensah, tourists are more attracted towards the facilities of restaurants, providing the quality services to the tourist as well as selecting the effective means of transportation (Nutsugbodo, Amenumey, & Mensah, 2018). These all are the activities which lead in providing maximum satisfaction to the tourists in efficiently. The most significant approach of tourist is considered the ability and capability of the tourist to travel around the world. Therefore, there are various needs which need to be followed and it is considered as an important part to travel and attract the tourist to move from one place to another. Therefore in this study various public modes of transportation are discussed with investigating their impact on the environment.

The main purpose is to understand the preferences of the tourist, local residents relating to the development and facilities provided to the tourists while travelling. The tourists are the major part for the tourism industry, therefore tourism industry provides several facilities to the tourist, and through this it affects the environment and the society. The study is also accomplished for finding the problems faced by the tourism industry. This provides clear understanding about the influence of tourism development towards the stakeholders such as local resident, tourist.

Preferences of Tourists and Residents Regarding Tourism Facilities

The data gathering was done by adopting the modeling for choosing the destination, understanding the preferences of the tourist as well as to know the association among the tourist development and factors such as social, environment. In this data is collected from reviewing the literatures it is because this helps in understanding the opinion of the researchers about the subject matter. The study was conducted in Ghana; it is because it leads in providing accurate understanding about the mobility of tourist and movements patterns of tourist. Researchers also used primary method by adopting random sampling method by collecting the information from the respondents within the between 18 to 65 years.

Researchers demonstrate that developing tourism lie in increasing the overall development of the country in the specific time period (Carr, Ruhanen, & Whitford, 2016). The study is conducted is to know the issue which leads and distributing the sustainable tourism development. Through evaluation, study describes that industry of tourism use more land of Ghana, because it raise the air pollution and reduce the quality of air.

The study also describes that more traffic regarding travelling increase the pollution in the economy (Weaver & Jin, 2016). The study also describes that preferences of the tourist also affects the tourism industry and leads in disturbing more endangered species. ‘

The main purpose is to recognize the effect of tourism development on the government, local residents (Baum, 2018). The information is gathered from secondary method that to find the stakeholders opinions regarding the subject matter. Through investigating, the researchers describes that it increase the cost for the local residents, decrease the GDP of the economy. In this tourist also gets affected.

The research is performed for recognizing the issues in the development of the tourism that is the issue of economic development which describes that with the rise in the resources it results in increasing various negative effects (Lee & Hsieh, 2016). The some of the effects describes that it leads in destruction of the plants and plant species which affects the future of the economy.

From the above it is revealed tourism development attract large number of tourist because of increasing the facilities which is provided to the tourist. The cost of the government also decreases and leads in increasing the overall spending capacity of the tourist. Therefore, the study describes that there are various issues but one of the problem which includes development of the economic. This result in forest fires as well as more construction of the tourist centers which results in using the local lands and leads in ineffective management of tourism development. The study revealed that the companies should use various initiatives in increasing the sustainable tourism in the economy.

Data Collection and Analysis

The findings of the study revealed that tourist increases because of mainly facilities provided by the government in the economy. Sustainable tourism development leads in increasing more income because of protecting the environment from the harmful effects, dangers as well as other factors. Researchers describe that through the investigation economic development that is more infrastructure facilities such as transportation, communication leads in affecting the environment. This results in increasing the noise pollution as well as more travelling leads more air pollution as well as increase the wastage of water. Therefore, more tourism in sustainable manner means positive impact on the environment.

The conclusion describes that more growth of the tourism destructs the plant, forest and wildlife. It also damages the environment as well as provides harm of the animals. This results in influencing the environment in more negative manner as well as decreases the strategies for protecting the environment as well as supporting the society.

From investigating, I find that the topic and article is important because it provide the information to the companies to adopt various strategies in protecting the environment. Through this the trustworthiness between the consumers increases. Therefore, through this study we also get the data regarding the impact of tourism advancement in the environment.

According to Dorjsuren and Palmer inequality leads in distributing the resources in unequal manner this leads that economy distributes the resources according to the economic burden and due to benefits (Dorjsuren & Palmer, 2018). The study revealed that equality in the resources increases the usage of resources. Researchers demonstrate that tourism industry is the well-established industry and equality in the resources sometimes may leads in disturbing the condition of the environment. Therefore, this study links the political, social and economic factors with the tourism development. Researchers describes that it is the main context for discussing about the major issues.

The main reason of research is to investigate the association between equality and the development of tourism in the economy. The studies describe that equality and inequality is also the key concern in the development of tourism in sustainableway. Researchers describes that this is important to understand because equality also leads in providing negative impact on the environment for the reason that of disturbing the environment in ineffectively. Therefore researchers defined that more contemporary issues leads in decreasing the growth of the economy because of reduction in GDP.

Researchers conducted the study to examine the relationship among the tourism and equality (Ruhanen, Weiler, Moyle, & McLennan, 2015). The information is gathered from secondary and primary method that is by reviewing the articles as well as by taking the survey from the stakeholders. The study revealed that through investigating researchers demonstrate that majority of the resources leads in affecting the practices of the environment.

Conclusion

The purpose of the study is also to understand the issues which are majorly occurred and disturb the sustainable development of tourism in the economy (Mihalic, 2016). Therefore, through analyzing the researchers demonstrate that it affects the overall environment because of using more natural resources.

The study describes that in the development of tourism political, social and economic are the major factor which raise the distribution capacity in the economy. Therefore both the method is used in collecting the information. Therefore through analyzing it demonstrate that leads in increasing the influence on the environment due to using more resources which are scare such as fuel, coal as well as other resources.

From the above it is concludes that hospitality industry uses various efforts to protect the environment, whereas the tourism industry develop in various areas such as rural and urban areas. This leads in reducing the efficiency of the economy it is because tourism development destructs economy by using the various natural resources, the study revealed that the tourism industry use maximum scare natural resources. The tourism development affects the overall functioning of the economy it is because of detecting major affect in the forest, funds etc.

Through investigation I think, tourism industry uses different strategies for the tourism emergence in specific region. Therefore, for the sustainable development the industries follows several strategies but still it generate various issues. In my perspective equality can be the factor which leads in increasing the damage in the economy. Therefore, through this many effects will takes place in the economy which includes more use of scare resources as well as affecting the natural beauty of the economy.

From the above literature reviewed it is finds that sustainable tourism development leads in providing various benefits to the economy. This leads in increasing the GDP because of more natural things higher tourist gets attracted towards the particular areas. The above study also revealed that more tourism development that is using more resources, destructing the wildlife, more use of land this affects the tourist because of damaging the land. Therefore, studies also revealed that it sometimes creates the misbalanced of the ecology and leads in ineffective abuse of the growth of tourist.

Therefore, it sometimes also creates more problems regarding the waste, pollution as well as various other problems. From the various issues involved in sustainable tourism development there are various strategies which help in increasing the development of tourism in the economy.  The tourism industry ca n uses the strategy such as they can use the resources in more sustainable manner because the resources in the economy are scare which leads in increasing the resources as well as protecting the environment. The industry can also take support from the local communities to get the guidance and to make decision; the company can also provide training to all the members in the organization to develop the practices for protecting the environment in effective manner.

Conclusion

From the above it is conclude that sustainable tourism development are the procedure in which various structure are  followed to develop the tourism in the economy in most sustainable manner.  Therefore, the above investigation revealed that equality and economic growth are the major challenges which disturb the tourism industry to take initiatives in protecting environment. The analysis shows that more facilities and more resources lead in affecting the environment because of high degree of pollution, effecting forest of economy. Therefore, to overcome this difficulties company can provide training to the employees and can allocate the resources in efficiently.
