Environmental positiveimpacts -yichen

Due to globalization, it also gives rise to a conscious effort on the part of the destination to conserve its traditional and cultural heritage so as to attract tourists who desire to experience this particular aspect. The host country (destination) may decide to preserve ancient monuments, historic sites and distinctive buildings. Those cultural and historical sites might have otherwise given away to roads, factories and other urban structures. Thus these old buildings can be protected and restorted to make them better places to attract the vistors to come instead of destorying them for the country's development. Such an effort to conserve cultural and historical monuments and buildings would enable the young in the local community to become more aware of their cultural and historical heritage. This is a positive impact on the environment because of the globalization.

Furthermore, it has the potential to increase public appreciation of the environment and to spread awareness of environmental problems. This is because it brings people into closer contact with the nature and environment. This confrontation can heighten tourists’awareness of the limited natural environment and lead to environmentally conscious behaviour and activities to preserve the environment. So people will be able to protect the environment.
