The document discusses how to apply the principles of eco-tourism. It begins by defining eco-tourism as responsible travel that conserves the environment and improves local well-being. Students then work in pairs to design an eco-tourist resort in The Gambia that meets these principles. Their designs must include accommodations, facilities, and annotations explaining how it conserves the environment and benefits the local community in an eco-friendly way. Finally, students present and evaluate their designs against a real example to understand how eco-tourism can work in practice.

L7 what is mass tourism ap
Mass tourism involves large scale tourism focused on a single destination for a specific purpose, such as skiing. It fits into the development phase of the Butler Tourism Life Cycle model. Many LEDCs view mass tourism favorably as it provides an economic boost through jobs, tax revenue, and local spending. However, mass tourism is also seasonal and can negatively impact the environment and landscapes that attracted tourists originally through overuse.

India's tourism sector has grown significantly in recent years, with foreign tourist arrivals increasing from 5.11 million in 2009 to 5.58 million in 2010, representing a compound annual growth rate of around 8% since 2001. While India's five largest cities are the major ports of entry for foreign tourists, the country faces competition from developing countries like Malaysia and Thailand that are growing their tourism sectors at an even faster rate. Over the decades, the Indian government has implemented various national policies and plans to promote sustainable tourism sector growth, including the establishment of a national tourism policy in 1982 and a national strategy for tourism promotion in 1996. Domestic tourism in India has also grown substantially, increasing from 64 million in 1990 to 167 million in 1998

Green Revolution
The green revolution aimed to increase crop yields through new high-yielding varieties of rice and wheat. This led to successes like tripling of yields in India, allowing the country to become self-sufficient in wheat and rice. However, there were also failures, as only wealthy farmers could afford the costs of the new seeds and technologies, which increased rural unemployment and migration to cities. The green revolution benefited some but was not financially viable for most small farmers. Appropriate technology tailored to existing skills could help increase living standards for more people.
1. global tourism introduction
This document discusses different types of tourism. It defines tourism as temporary travel for leisure purposes and interactions between tourists and destinations. Different types of tourism include honeypot tourism at popular attractions, MICE tourism for business purposes, medical tourism for health procedures, film-induced tourism to locations featured in movies, heritage tourism for culture and history, religious tourism to sacred sites, and dark tourism focused on death. Each type of tourism requires certain physical or human characteristics in the destination. New types of tourism are also constantly evolving.
Introduction to Tourism
Tourism is a complex multi-sector industry that involves the movement and accommodation of people traveling to destinations outside their home environment. It provides economic benefits through job creation and foreign exchange earnings, but can also impose social and environmental costs on host communities. The tourism industry comprises several operating sectors including transportation, accommodation, food services, attractions, and tour operators that work together to meet the needs of various types of visitors engaging in tourism for purposes like business, pleasure, and visiting friends and relatives.
Power point presantation

Some key points made include that sustainability ensures the long-term viability of the tourism industry, balances the needs of hosts, guests, and the environment, and leads to benefits for local communities, businesses, and travelers. Both the opportunities and challenges of tourism for local communities are examined.
Ecotourism Intro & Homework
Ecotourism is defined as responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and supports local communities. There are five main principles of ecotourism: appreciating nature and culture, education, small group tours, minimizing impacts, and creating economic benefits for local communities. Both ecotourism and sustainable tourism aim to minimize environmental and social impacts while providing unique experiences, but ecotourism focuses on smaller, nature-based tours to remote areas that often involve physical activity. Ecotourism is a type of sustainable tourism that can effectively manage the global tourism industry if implemented properly in low-income countries through environmental conservation and local economic support.

India Responsible Tourism
The concept of responsible tourism originated from the work of Jost Krippendorf in the 1980s as a response to the negative environmental and social impacts of tourism. Krippendorf advocated for new forms of tourism that benefit travelers, local communities, and businesses without causing harm. Responsible tourism aims to protect the environment and local cultures, benefit local economies and societies, conserve natural resources, and minimize pollution. While related to ecotourism, responsible tourism has a broader focus on sustainable development and inclusiveness. Many destinations in India face challenges with overtourism negatively impacting environments and communities. Various initiatives promote responsible practices to make tourism more sustainable and beneficial to all stakeholders over the long term.

Sustainable tourism a form of development nowadays
Sustainable hotel management focuses on bringing positive experiences to local people, tourism companies, and tourists while having a low environmental impact and respecting local culture. Ecotourism aims to conserve the natural environment and improve welfare of local people through responsible travel that minimizes impacts and provides financial and other benefits to conservation and local communities. While ecotourism focuses on ecological conservation, sustainable tourism more broadly aims to minimize overall impacts on the environment and local communities for any type of tourism. It is important to identify potential "greenwashing" by hotels through lack of proof of sustainable actions, vagueness in claims, or reliance on false labels rather than substantive programs.

CHAPTER:1Introduction
Sustainable tourism is a form of tourism, which requires a tourist to respect the local culture, environment, preserving cultural heritage, and supporting local economies by purchasing local products which also benefits the people of that country. Sustainable tourism is a form of development, which is Social development, Economic development and Nature protection. According to the World Tourism Organization, Sustainable tourism is “Tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment, and host communities” UNWTO (2013). Denmark is more concerned about sustainable environment, for instance the Government is aiming at Copenhagen becoming the world’s first carbon-neutral capital by 2025. Government have put high taxation on vehicles, cars so Danes have to think twice before buying or using them. This could be the strategy of the nation. As they are on the way to gain something remarkable, they also have some challenges. The tourism industry has a million of turnover in Danish economy and Danish government puts a high effort in order to make it more sustainable. The big topic could be how the tourist react on it? All the government efforts could be result less if the customer and the business does not act smart. To the Danes, sustainability is a holistic approach that includes renewable energy, water management, waste recycling and green transportation including bicycle culture. Most of the local restaurants use re-usable things during their service also, practices waste deposable for take away.
Tourism is the best way to experience the culture however, damage and waste can occur due to inappropriate behavior of tourists. According to the Denmark statics (2019), every year tourist spends around 128 billion DKK in Denmark. Denmark is very responsible towards environment and most of the hotels are practicing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). For example, Scandic Kødbyen is one of the hotels practicing sustainability, first to implement CSR. It plays a significant support in sustainable tourism business, which includes hotel, restaurant and the service provided sectors. Visit Copenhagen states that 70% of hotels hold an official eco-certification and also known as the hap.

According to the World Tourism Organization, Sustainable tourism is “Tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment, and host communities” UNWTO (2013). Denmark is more concerned about sustainable environment, for instance the Government is aiming at Copenhagen becoming the world’s first carbon-neutral capital by 2025. Government have put high taxation on vehicles, cars so Danes have to think twice before buying or using them. This could be the strategy of the nation. As they are on the way to gain something remarkable, they also have some challenges. The tourism industry has a million of turnover in Danish economy and Danish government puts a high effort in order to make it more sustainable. The big topic could be how the tourist react on it? All the government efforts could be result less if the customer and the business does not act smart. To the Danes, sustainability is a holistic approach that includes renewable energy, water management, waste recycling and green transportation including bicycle culture. Most of the local restaurants use re-usable things during their service also, practices waste deposable for take away.
Tourism is the best way to experience the culture however, damage and waste can occur due to inappropriate behavior of tourists. According to the Denmark statics (2019), every year tourist spends around 128 billion DKK in Denmark. Denmark is very responsible towards environment and most of the hotels are practicing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). For example, Scandic Kødbyen is one of the hotels practicing sustainability, first to implement CSR. It plays a significant support in sustainable tourism business, which includes hotel, restaurant and the service provided sectors. Visit Copenhagen states that 70% of hotels hold an official eco-certification and also known as the hap.

This document discusses using tourism to improve places for both residents and visitors. It outlines the history of sustainable development and defines responsible tourism. Responsible tourism aims to minimize negative impacts, benefit local communities, and involve local people. For tourism to be successful, it must offer unique experiences, maintain cultural heritage and environments, and create a sense of place. However, mass tourism can degrade destinations and lower the quality of life for residents, leading to overtourism. For tourism's benefits to be realized, it must support local employment, facilities, and ownership while limiting leaks from the local economy. The experiences visitors seek are often found through interactions with local people and culture rather than large-scale development. Communities must decide how to develop in
Limits to Growth, Responsibility & Overtotuism
This document discusses the challenges of overtourism and the need for more responsible tourism practices. It notes that tourism development has largely failed to achieve true sustainability despite decades of initiatives. Overtourism is a consequence of this failure to move beyond superficial commitments to sustainability. The document argues that responsible tourism requires all stakeholders, including tourists, to acknowledge their role and take meaningful action to address issues like climate change, waste, and impacts on local communities. Certification alone is not enough without transparency around performance. Responsible tourism should focus on priority issues in each local context.

1. motivation
Here is an 8 mark response evaluating the importance of having a well motivated workforce:
A well motivated workforce is crucial for businesses as it directly impacts productivity, absenteeism, quality, turnover and training & recruitment. Motivated employees work harder and are more productive, leading to increased output and profits. They are less likely to take time off without good reason, lowering absenteeism rates. High motivation ensures staff strive for excellence, maintaining and improving quality standards. Workers remain loyal to employers that motivate them, reducing staff turnover. New recruits are attracted to companies with a reputation for motivating staff, easing training and recruitment. Overall, a motivated team is invaluable in helping a business maximise its potential through enhanced performance in all key areas.
