Tourism is a booming industry in China. However， some people worry that too many tourism may bring harm to the environment. There has been a discussion recently about Chinas pollution crisis. Also tourism is a social phenomenon which closely related to economic level， and obviously it has become one of the most valuable commercial activities.However， with more and more travelers flocking to this business market， many aspects of tourism could cause huge influence to Chinas pollution crisis. As far as i am concerned， tourism will bring harm to the environment.

Recently， enviromental pollution has sparked a heated discussion among social classes.Peoples opinions about wether tourism will bring harm to enviroment are vary from person to person， some people advocate that tourism will benifit the surroundings and other people hold the view that tourism pollution can do harmful effect to our future home.On the one hand， tourism developing activity could clean the nature， and improve the awareness of people for protecting envoroment， also promote people to guard nature resource or wild animals and plants.The development of tourism is totally increased social production value and national citizen income， fortified the rate of employment.It also can contribute to the poor area to alleviate poverty in order to become more rich， and which could appeal to the overseas investment.Tourism let every kind of tourists who have different culture background to get together to travel one place， to accelerate the conmmunications and cooperations of different areas and different countries， and the unity of every nations even the the sense of pride of nations.And the income of tourism has become the fund souce for the protection of historical relics， traditional culture， and national handiwork.With the management and development of tourism， it will help to combine the objective landscape with subjective feellings， so it can strengthen the atomosphere of tourism enviroment.On the other hand， some places were destoryed arbitrarily， laking of scientific plan and argument， building civil works or artificial scenery sport more.It will lead the plants choped down seriously.and the mountain or nature scenery view will be break easily.

When it comes to tourism， more and more people believe that tourism is a tender industry.If humanbeings rely on it excessively， that will influence the nstabilization of national economy.For instance， in the hot season of tourism， so many tourists come into the sport， it will inevitablely cause the rising of inflationary spiral.If the administration can not charge this situation， it will cause more and more wastes， or some same establishment will be constructed again and again.Lastly， the development of tourism may cause the assimilation or dissimilation of culture， that must be a problem that could arouse wide concern in the public.Because we will face the challege for losing the reality， difference， and the character of historical culture.

For one thing， environmental pollution is becoming more and more serious.Tourist activity is a consumption activity， its inevitable that it will produce all kinds of wastes.With the development of tourism traffic， modern transportation which is including buses， cars will discharge more gases， and the utilization of various sources will cause the atmospheric contamination. It is true to the present situation that the water could be easily damaged by discharging sewage and rubbish.If some travelers have no mentality about ecological protection， they will throw away as much as stuff as they like， its a serious problem that will give rise to the pollution for solid wastes.Great amount of solid wastes are produced and it lead to some environmental problems. All of these will form destruction for ecological environment system. For another， the destruction of animal and plant resources has become increasingly worsened. In order to develop tourist areas， many habitats or refuges may totally be destroyed where provided for a multitude of wild animals. Many examples can be found to prove that the most common form to cause the plant damaging is picking and treading randomly by travelers in tourist activities.However， when people prepared for building tourist facilities， or places of entertainment， there is no doubt that a large area of plants would be removed.Therefore， its the most direct damage to plant resources.

Tourism is an industry which depend on enviroment highly.The bad impact which caused by tourism activities must be governed effectively， otherwise it will threat the subsistence and development of tourism.So we must take some effective measures to protect our envioment.Firstly， strengthening the mangements and fuctions of government.Secondly， broadcasting the education of tourism， spreading the konwlege about what should we do or should not do.Tirdly， we must take scientific means to exploit tourism resouces reasonably， and using the economic ways to carry out the enviromental protection.

In conclusion， it is well known that environmental pollution gives more and more pressure to our civilization.More harm than good.Of course， we prefer to have the green mountains and blue sky， rather than treasure. Its necessary for us to respect nature and protect surroundings， it conforms to modern moral codes in tourism.Dont hurt the earth， and we should should know that our descendants may have no chance to enjoy and admire these special， pretty sightseeing places， unless everyone is willing to protect them. In this view， its high time for us to take some actions to have some hand in developing tourism. For instance， it is commonly accepted that to enhance the education of tourism morality.
