From about 1870 to 1940 Hawaii’s tourism began. Hawaii tourism grew faster and more predictable steamships replaced sailing vessels in trans-pacific travel.
There are many value orientations and conflicts of tourists at a marine protected area in Hawaii. Marine tourism has increased in popularity over the years. The coral reefs have been impacted by pollution, overfishing, global climate change which are also known as anthropogenic stressors. Scuba divers and snorkelers can cause damage to water life because of how close they may get or by them bumping into marine life. Marine tourism can also cause damage to the coral reefs by physical contact, anchor damage, oil discharge, and untreated sewage from boats. All factors can lead to climate change which results in global warnings and many of the causes are from tourism from enjoying marine life.
Tourist is the number one thing that Hawaii works for every day and if it wasn’t for them they wouldn’t really be doing well overall. Hawaii runs on tourism and if it wasn’t for that they wouldn’t be able to have a lot of what they have. There are some pros and cons that come from it and some of the pros are tourism can help Hawaii’s economy, greater demand for local food, more jobs in the tourism industry such as (hotels, restaurants, and little shops). Cons, super expensive to live there, not enough high-paying jobs for people with degrees, overpopulated, pollution, shortage of food, environmental damage, exploitation of culture.
