This lesson from The Economist Educational Foundation uses the rise in international travel to explore the problem of overtourism. Students look at the economic and social effects on local communities, consider different approaches to making tourism more sustainable, and debate the trade-offs involved. Good for linking externalities, sustainability and government intervention across developed and developing economies.
