RESPONSIBLE TOURISM GUIDELINES
Tourism is now the world's largest industryin 2000, it generated an
estimated $3.6 trillion in
economic activity and accounted for one in every 12 jobs worldwide. But
the industry's  growth has placed a heavy burden on local economies,
cultures and environments.  Tourism development is now stressing many of
the planet's most sensitive locations.
