Firstofall,itisanindisputablefactthattheInternethasrevolutionizedthewaywecommunicate.Despitetheriskofsocialisolation—aproblemoccasionallyseeninpeoplewhospendtoomuchtimeattheircomputerterminalratherthanrelatingtopeopleintherealworld---mostofushavebenefitedgreatlyfrome-mailandinternetchatprogramslikeMSNMessenger.Theseincrediblyusefulandpowerfultoolsofcommunicationfacilitatebothcontactwithlovedonesinfarawayplacesandglobaltrade.

Firstofall,globaltourismtendstoexportmanynegativeaspectsofwesternculture.Sinceitisonlythewealthywhocanaffordtotravelabroad,developingcountrieslikeThailandandIndonesiahavebecometheplaygroundsoftouristsfrommoreaffluentones.Inmanysuchnations,thisinfluxofmainlywesterntouristshasbroughtwithitproblemssuchasprostitutionaswellasalcoholismanddrugabuse.Admittedly,internationaltourismdoeshavethepotentialtofostergreaterunderstandingandtolerancebetweenpeopleofdifferentcultures.However,thisisunlikelytooccurwhileitremainssuchapotentsymbolofwesternculturaldominationandmoraldecadence.

Evenmoredisturbing,though,istheenvironmentaldegradationthatinternationaltourismhascausedinmanypartsoftheworld.OneparticularlysalientexampleofthisistheGreatBarrierReefinAustralia---thecountlessboats,diversandsnorkelersthathavevisitedthereefoverthepastfewdecadeshavegraduallydestroyedvastsectionsofcoral.Similarly,worldrenownedKutaBeachinBalihasbecomeheavilypollutedinrecentyears.Inordertobesustainable,greaterregulationofglobaltourismisrequired.

Inconclusion,thechallengespresentedbytheboominginternationaltouristindustryarenumerousandcomplex.Althoughtheyarebynomeansinsurmountable,itishighlyunlikelythattheywillberesolvedintheforeseeablefuture.
