• It provides a lot of good things to the population, for example, jobs, money for poorer countries and new facilities for local people.
• It keeps traditions alive and it makes that the people learn more about other cultures of other countries.
• It makes that the country have more money and more population because if the people like the country maybe they will come to live here.
• It makes country's culture better because it promotes international understanding and it means that the population of that country will learn more languages.
• It helps to the country's economy because people spend more money in the air travel and paying the hotels.
But also there are some problems:
• It make a really big damage to the environment and it creates pollution because there is more traffic in the city.
• Some animals will disappear because the people build hotels and it doesn't let space for them.
• Some people won't come because in these years the prices went up so the economy will go worst.
• It can threats our culture because they can change it little by little.
So finally, for us, the culture is good to the economy but there are also a lot of issues that the people have to improve.]]> 2018-02-23 07:36:19 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234587824 https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234587900 Tourism, being a so important activity in our times, it brings as consecuence some ambiental and cultural, like learning about other cultures, impacts and benefits.
Tourism is the activity that people realise when they move and travel from their original place with leisure reasons, to enjoy or others. It has become an important activity in the economic sector in the last decades.

-In favour: 
•Tourism causes the creation of hotels, especially in attractive places to visit.
•Tourist like to learn new cultures from the places they visit, so it helps to keep the traditions from the place alive.
•Tourism causes a higher use of air transport and others, because there are far places with some difficulties to arrive.
•It encourages the practice of other languages, especially the use of english because nowadays it is the most common language. It promotes international understanding between people from other cultures.
•Tourism, in its better times, causes the huge growth of employment.

-Against:
•Tourism is a worrying activity because the environmental implications, overall because it causes the increase of pollution, linked to passenger transport.
•Tourism generates that prices increase because tourist are willing to pay anything to buy a quality memory.
•Tourism threat our culture because when a mixture of cultures is produced, one of them overcomes to the other, maybe because is more liked or other reason.

In conclusion, we think that tourism produces a great benefit for every country and its economy, but there are some factors that people has to improve.]]> 2018-02-23 07:36:51 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234587900 https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234588334 Tourism is one of the best activities you can do because you discover the world, new places, different cultures and new people but just the way you want.
Here are our arguments in favour and against more turism:
In favour:
- When go go abroad, we need to stay in hotels, eat in restaurants or buy food in shops, this way turism provides a lot of jobs to cover those necesities.
- Tusrism keeps traditions alive because when we visit a place we don't know, we usually want to discover something about their culture so turists obligate in some way the citicens to keep their traditions going.
- Promote international understanding because if you want to travelto a country where they don't speak your language, you should learn at least the basic things about that another language.

Against:
- Turism can theaten our culture because if our country is full of turists, we focus on pleasing them and we don't really keep our traditions alive.
- Damage the environment because for traveling we use vehicles that polute the world and if the turism rises, there would be even more vehicles damaging our beautiful country
- It also produces more traffic everywhere and makes the prices go up.

Apart from all of these reasons in favour or against we are totally in favour of tourism because all those good thinks we said, it is a great form of knowing the world and in our oppinion, the polution theme could be solved with less contaminating vehicles.]]> 2018-02-23 07:40:07 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234588334 https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234588866 Tourism is a very important section in the Spanish and world economy, also travel is one of the main hobbies of citizens of many countries.

We think that a lot of tourism could be harmful for a country or city, that the only thing that would do would be to raise the price of hotels, the rent of an apartment or the price of food in restaurants and supermarkets

We also think that the most touristic parts of a country could be overcrowded. And the goverment of the country can't guarantee the security of all citizens and would have to increase the police force

Some benefits of tourism would be the increase of jobs such as firefighters, policemen, waiters, lifeguards ... Also the visit of so many tourists could increase our culture on other countries, religions ...]]> 2018-02-23 07:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234588866 https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234589125 Tourism is very important to the Spanish economy.
But some people have different opinions about the tourism. 

The people in favour say that:
- Tourism provide money for poorer countries.
-The tourism causes the contruction of new hoteles that provide jobs in the country.
-The tourist like to learn about other cultures, so that makes more money.
-The tourism keep the traditions alive went they participate in the traditions.
-The country protect the wildlife from the tourism, making that country hace more culture.
-The tourist can talk to the people that live in the country to promote the lenguage of that country.

The people against say that:
-The tourism create pollution and more traffic
because they use the taxi or bus to go from one part to another.
-The prices go up because the tourism like to buy thinks as a memory of the city.
-Some people damage the environment when they travel to another country.
-The tourism create more air travel doing traffic on the airport.
-The tourist could threaten the cultures if countries, like, don't doing the traditions things in public places, or spawning rules.]]> 2018-02-23 07:45:08 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234589125 https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234589240 Nowadays, tourism plays an important role in our countries. This makes an important difference between developed and non developed places. 

Specially economically, thanks tourists and their consumerism. 

Also, provides jobs and increases more businesses and new facilities for local people. 
Although there it is an increasing of jobs and business, tourism can damage the environent. For example, tourism in Lanzarote increases each year a 5%, and because of that, business men, decide to create 5 more hotels for hosting more vacationist. They'd need for building those hotels, to destroy a forest. These would damage the enviroment of the island and the people living there.
And last but not least, visitor and locals get a chance to experience new cultures. 
On the other side of tourism, they are some groups of tourists, which go to a country and instead of learning the culture, they destroy it, such in Magaluz, where vacationist ruin the city while they are drunk.
For these, tourism is important but we need to keep working on solving the problem tourism can cause

Now we are going to talk about in favour and against the tourism


●Against:
  - If there is a lot of tourism the touristic points can be overcrowded.
  - Not all the tourists are good people, some of them come to the country to fight.
  - Lot of different cultures match together so there might be different ideas of life.
  - There are a lot of stealings.


●In favour: 
  - As we said before, it helps to the economy of the country.
  - Also the incomes increase.
  - We can learn a lot of things of another cultures and also different costumes.
  - One advantage is that tourism creates a lot of jobs.
  - You can meet new people from other countries.
  - Hotels can improve their facilities with the money that tourists leave in it. And with better facilities another tourists will be more attracted.]]> 2018-02-23 07:46:08 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234589371 https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234589642 The turism is a very interesting way to win money showing our culture and traditions. By the other way turisim damages our enviroment, in the south coast with all the tourist geting drunk and throwing rubish in the streets. 

Also it gives new oportunities to the local people providing jobs to them. Also another problem for spanish people is that some cities are overcrowded and also prices go up.

Also it provides money to the poorer countries such as some places in Africa that are beautiful but are very poor. Another fact is that by traveling you discovere new cultures and traditions

Hi Steve!
We are Ana and Paloma and each one of us are going to tell you arguments in favor and against more tourism. 
Arguments in favour of more tourism: 
• Keep traditions: Travelling to another country will help you learn about a culture different to yours and understand the people that belongs to them. 
• Learn about other cultures: As we said before. Travelling opens your mind to all the different people and cultures that exist around the world. Maybe you meet people you never thought you would connect with. 
• Provide jobs: The more people that travels, the more stablishment is used and the more workers are needed to deal with. So, by this way, the personal of the different stablishments will be needed to increase. 
• Provide money to poorer countries: Creating new workplaces will reduce the unemployment of the country that people travel to. Also, the people that travels to that places waste money. 
Arguments against more tourism: 
• Prices go up: If the number of people that travels grows, that would means that the companies will increase their prices and by this way, only people with money could travel. We think that poorer people should have the same oportunities than rich people to travel. 
• Damage the environment: In other point of view, we could say that turism might damage the environment with all the pollution that people produce. Not only the people but also the cars and planes and other stuff we use to travel. Tourism would be great if people knew how to respect the environment but at this moment, they're not conscious. 
As a conclusion in our point of view, tourism is a great way to make the country grow, by earning money, making people enjoy the country and learning more about it. Yes, tourism could produce a lot of pollution and traffic, but also the cars and buses do it and we still use them so why don’t do something that helps the country in an economical way?
If we all respect the environment we could have tourism and dont pollute our world.]]> 2018-02-23 08:21:48 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234596175 https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234626595
AGAINST

Build Hotels/provide jobs: As you have to build a new hotel, ypu will have to take on new  people, in that case, you aren´t  just helping oneperson, you are providing money to a whole family , that maybe really need that money. After this, the hotel will need recepcionist, waiters , chefs, etc. Whitout knowing it, new hotels are doing good things for the sociaety.

Keep traditions alive: Is a fact, that traditiond are going to disapear, If you go to a country you have never been before, ypu want to know more about their culture, that incluides traditions. Tourist want to stop over in a small village and watch their daily routine, from my point of view , this is extremely important if you got to a new city.

AGREE
I don't think there shoud be tourism, because thre people who come from other countries may cause pollution because it's allowed in their homes, such as spitting.
They wouldn't know how to cross the zebra pass and may be hit by a car.
And also, tourist could bother local people.]]> 2018-02-23 10:31:52 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234626595 https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234638612 Agree: They might cut a flower and damage the enviroment, the flowers have the right to live too! They are absolutely important for the country.
More air travel means more accidents, which means more deaths. If you travel on a car only five people would die, but on a plane hundreds of lifes would be lost.
That's why we disagree with tourism.]]> 2018-02-23 11:29:03 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234638612 enrique_garcia_torija https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234695032 Is tourism good or bad?

In an economic field tourism generates a lot of employment, offering services, or with the growth of hotels, this helps many countries which get a lot of income from tourism, on the other hand these jobs are mostly temporary and these hotels that are usually in the front line of the beach damage the environment killing the habitat of many species.

On the other hand, tourism generates a lot of movement by airplane, this benefits the companies, damages the environment, for example a flight Madrid - Bilbao consumes about 3000 liters of fuel, we must also take into account that not only the airplane is used as a way of transport and that more and more are being made means of transport more respectful with the environment.

Finally say that tourism brings cultures and countries together, this helps us to eliminate prejudices that we could have and discover that in the variety is beauty, on the other hand many times the opposite happens, it is during these voyages that prejudices are created, especially with young people who take advantage of the absence of their parents to get drunk and to make vandalism.

To conclude, We would like to say that tourism is a great opportunity, that we should not waste in order to get to know new cultures, even though the image we take with us is not always the most real one, which benefits the countries financially, although it is not very respectful with the environment and with the country's own inhabitants.

The idea around which I am going to talk about next is tourism. Thinking about it in a general way, most people see it as something positive related to the growth of countries economy. But tourism also involves negative aspects that affect the functioning of these countries. That's why I'm going to offer arguments for an against more tourism.

-In favour:
· It could allow keep traditions alive. Traditions in every part of the world are very important. Culture equals identity. When a culture disappear, so do people, and tourism is a way to prevent this from happening.
· Tourism contributes to employment growth, thanks to the existence of tourist offices or by building new hotels, among others.
· Sometimes, part of the money collected due to tourism is provided for poorer countries.
· Through tourism people can learn many new interesting things about other cultures and, by this way, they can open their minds to the different customs that exist in the world.

- Against:
· As I said before, building hotels can be a factor in favor of tourism, but it could also be a way to damage the environment and endangering many animals that live in it. This happens because  people just think about getting more and more money and they build a lot of new accommodations for tourists occupying and destroying large natural spaces.
· Tourism attracts many people who end up concentrated in common places. This bring various consequences against it. For example, if there are so many people everywhere you go and you have to wait lots of queues, you don't enjoy your visit as much as you could do with less people.
Another common problem is that the more people travel, the more the prices go up, so finally, people spend too much money buying things that they don't really need. 
All these people also contribute to the increase of pollution and traffic in cities.

To finish, I would like to say that in my opinion tourism is an important economic and social part for the countries but people should know how to carry it out in a better way.]]> 2018-02-23 16:43:54 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/234780394 https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/1661690040 2021-07-27 03:31:24 UTC https://padlet.com/david_mcrugan/ifkikl9xmhsy/wish/1661690040
