Tourism and environment protection

Abstract

There is dramatic turning point on global tourism market. The newest tendencies are characterized by hyper-mobility: especially large growth of air transport, the largest consumer of energy and CO2 issuer. Hyper-mobility - enabled with the expansion of so called 'low-cost' air companies, growth of general level of education, standard of living and extra free time - in industrially developed countries leads rapidly to global effects negative for environment. Further uncontrolled trend of hyper-mobility is, of course, in dramatic collision with basic principles of sustainable development. .

Na globalnom turističkom tržištu u toku je dramatični preokret. Najnovije tendencije karakteriše pojava hipermobilnosti: naročito nagli porast obima avio-saobraćaja, najvećeg potrošača energije i emitera CO2. Hipermobilnost - omogućena ekspanzijom tzv. low-cost avio-kompanija, porastom opšteg nivoa obrazovanja, životnog standarda i dodatnog slobodnog vremena - u industrijski razvijenim zemljama zahuktalo vodi sve značajnijim negativnim globalnim efektima po životnu sredinu. Dalji nekontrolisani trend hipermobilnosti je, naravno, u dramatičnoj koliziji sa osnovnim principima održivog razvoja. .
