Over-tourism: A Growing Threat to Environment and Communities

Imagine lots of people visiting a place, like a popular park or a beach.

This is called over-tourism.

While tourism helps the economy and creates jobs, it can also cause problems.

Too many visitors can damage the environment, like polluting the water and harming plants and animals.

Locals may find it harder to live there because housing gets expensive, and the place changes.

To fix this, governments can limit visitors, encourage sustainable practices, and businesses can manage prices.

It's about finding a balance so everyone can enjoy a place without ruining it.
