Sustainable tourism is an international issue that is addressed through UN conferences. The goal of sustainable tourism is to improve and promote tourism in a way that does not cause environmental damage. Tourism depends on and affects both the environment and local economies. While tourism brings economic opportunities, it can also negatively impact landscapes, increase pollution, and introduce sociocultural changes if not properly managed. International cooperation, infrastructure development, new technologies, and government support are keys to guiding tourism onto a more sustainable path.
