The way we travel has changed over the years and especially after the Covid-19 pandemic. While more people are travelling now than ever before, there is a need to be responsible while travelling and it is never too late to start.
Tourism is on the rise because the world is full of undiscovered destinations, breathtaking scenery, and wildlife that everyone should see at least once in their lives. In certain cases, growing tourism has a negative impact on neighbouring towns and resources. Furthermore, major movements to protect the planet`s health are ongoing, as the repercussions of our continued mistreatment are grave.
Things that were formerly normal while travelling are now unacceptable. It`s not necessarily a bad thing! To reduce tourism`s negative effects on people, the environment, and ourselves, we must shift our focus to more ethical travel. People are travelling more frequently, farther away, and for longer periods of time. To demonstrate respect for the places they visit, travellers should observe local customs and contribute back to the community.
