Туризм разрушает все, чего касается?
При входе в один из разрушенных храмов Петры в Иордании, есть надпись,
высеченная в скалe. Выглядит, как будто была там в течение многих столетий.
Эта надпись, возможно, была вырезана одним из солдатов Короля Эрода, когда
они были заключены в тюрьму в 40 до н.э., Но более близкий осмотр
показывает, что эта надпись не является настолько древней. Читаем:
Шан и Вендай из Сиднея были здесь. 16Апреля 1996.
Руины Петры были обнаружены в 1810 швейцарским исследователем, и недавнее
сообщение только что заключило, что "они находятся в серьезной опасности от
того, чтобы не быть разрушенными от большого наплыва туристов". Больше чем 4
000 туристов в день бродят по скалистым могилам Петры. Они стирают мягкий
красный песчаник в порошок и (иногда!) царапают свои имена на скале..
И не только Петра, находится под угрозой разрушения. Больше чем 600
миллионов туристов в год путешествуют по земному шару, и большое количество
их хотят посетить всемирно охраняемые места: Парфенон, Taj Malial,
Stonehenge, национальные парки Кении. Туристская индустрия скоро будет
крупнейшей в мире, и ей только исполнилось 50 лет. Много мест, которые были
отдаленны - теперь являются местами отдыха по путевке. Ничто не остановит
рост туризма?

Каждый год британские бизнесмены, тратят 20bn - это эквивалент 5 процентов
валового национального продукта -. на путешествия и развлечения. Затраты на
путешествия и развлечения опережают национальный счет по корпоративным
налогам и нормам Сохранение спроса на путешествия находится под контролем,
т.к. это бесконечная борьба многих корпораций. Компании хотят быть в
состоянии удерживать административное управление по расходам настолько
напряженным насколько возможно, контролировать и понимать образцы расходов и
идентифицировать возможности сбереженной стоимости. Найти способы сделать
более точные прогнозы бюджета - главная цель. Двадцать лет назад,
путешествующему бизнесмену авиалинии едва давали выбор, ему приходилось
выносить тесные места, кричащих детей и скудную пищу. Теперь путешествующие
бизнесмены это рынок, которого наиболее добиваются, за которым ухаживают
авиалинии не только потому, что требование исполнителями для авиалинии
помещает устойчивые остатки но также и потому что они имеют тенденцию платить
близко к полной плате за проезд.
Британские авиалинии провела 25 м., модернизаций услуг деловые класса. БА
обновляется, создано два отличных клуба - Клуб Мира и Клуб Европа Ц это было
самым существенным развитием в путешествии деловым классом.
Новое обслуживание гальванизировало большинство конкурентов БА в радикальную
модернизацию услуг делового класса - так, что фактически каждую неделю
можно видеть какие-то усовершенствования, объявленные главной авиалинией,
поскольку каждый стремится получить конкурентоспособное преимущество.
Главная выгода для пассажиров обслуживающихся в Клубе Мира это значительное
увеличение места для ног и то, что места откидываются, а так же эти новые
места имеют другую форму контура и заменили предыдущие довольно неудобные
места. Клуб Мира также предлагает установленные места в салоне так, чтобы
разделить пассажиров, платящих более высокую плату за проезд от эконом
класса, так как там значительно улучшенная пища и напитки.
Авиалиния также пристально следит за вопросами питания в полете и хотят ли
пассажиры более питательную пищу. Некоторые полагают, что тенденция будет
вести к увеличению количества закусок для пассажиров делового класса,
которые едят, когда пожелают.

them with carers (careers, corers) in an area equipped with computers, crayons,
paper, a dining room, and a just-for-fun upside-down room where furniture is
