INTRODUCTION
Sustainable tourism can be defined as tourism that takes responsibility for present and
future economic, social and environmental impacts and also addresses all important requirements
of tourists. This report aims at discussing adverse effects of tourism industry and the resulting
development of sustainable tourism. Followed by this report will discuss key principles
underpinning the development process of sustainable tourism. Later key stakeholders and their
contribution will also be discussed in this report. Later difference in outcomes of sustainable
tourism of an established and emerging tourism destination will also be discussed. This report

Activity – 1
Key drivers of sustainable tourism have developed in importance and significance globally
Scarce Resources- This is one of the most important drivers of sustainable tourism and has
developed in importance and significance globally. Resources especially those that are non-
renewable in nature have driven need for sustainable development (Juvan and Dolnicar, 2017).
Water is one of the example of such resource in which scarcity of water required countries and
tourist destinations to implement sustainable strategy for tourism.
Environment Impact- This is another important driver of sustainable tourism that has
developed and is of importance and significance globally. Tourism activities have caused
negative impact on environment such as transportation caused carbon emission and this
encouraged tourism destinations and governments to develop sustainable transportation. In
addition to this accidents caused by tourism have also made negative impact on environment and
this includes fire because of cooking in forests that cause massive fire in area. This required
destination and government to undertake sustainable tourism practices.
Pollution- Pollution that is caused by different activities is another driver for sustainable tourism
in which different types of pollution have driven development of sustainable tourism. This is also

a factor that has grown in importance and significance globally. Pollution includes water
pollution, air pollution and noise pollution and these have significant impact on environmental
sustainability and caused governments and destinations to undertake sustainable tourism
planning and implementation (Baum, 2018). Water pollution is result of waste that gets occurred
because of tourism activities and this is why sustainable tourism includes reducing waste of
resources.
These are some of the adverse effects of tourism which have encouraged and driven
sustainable tourism and these are also important for tourism globally.
Their impact on future global tourism
These factors are likely to have positive impact on future global tourism because
sustainable tourism has increased demand for destinations that are following practices for
sustainability. Because of sustainable tourism practices destinations will be able to improve and
enhance environment at that place. This means that sustainable practices will lead to reduction of
negative impact of tourism on environment and will also lead to effective achievement of
tourism objectives of destination. Increasing awareness of all tourists regarding responsibility
towards environment and sustainability of tourism is also included in impact on future global
tourism.
Conceptual development of sustainable tourism and how it has evolved
Evolution of sustainable tourism is result of growing awareness and sensitization all
actors involved in sustainable tourism. This involves responsibility by tourism sector for care for
environment, biodiversity and the economy and local culture and continuing legacy for future
generation (The history of sustainable tourism, 2018). This attracted attention of different
stakeholders of tourism and elements like pollution, environment was considered in sustainable
tourism development. Evolution of sustainable tourism led to 40% travellers willing to go on
eco-trips and demand for sustainable tourism destination have also increased.
