Travelling and Environment.

1. Today, travel agencies offer all kinds of holidays to all types of people. Some people prefer to  “go it alone”, choosing their own destination and booking their tickets and accommodation themselves. . So there is a tourist boom! If you ask a lot of tourists why do they go, they often mention world famous museums, national parks, castles and royal places as the main reason. But “package” holidays (including plane tickets, accommodation and meals) are the most popular and convenient types of holidays now

2. Some tourists stay on beautiful islands on their holidays. They bring good business to these places, but sometimes they also bring problems for the environment. Some of the world’s great coral reefs are in danger from tourists, for example. Coral reefs take thousands of years to grow from the dead bodies of very small sea animals. They grow from the floor of the sea up to a thousand meters high. They are homes of millions of fish and sea plants.

3. The Australian Great Barrier Reef is one of the world’s great reefs. There are other coral reefs along the coasts of Africa, Central America and the Pacific islands.

4. But more and more tourists are visiting the reefs, walking on them and breaking them. People often take pieces of coral home at the end of their holidays. In some countries divers and fishermen are part of the problem, too. They are killing the reefs with pollution from their boats. The great reefs are slowly dying.
