STS : SUSTAINABLE TOURISM SERVICES "The Tourism Industry has a vested interest in protecting the natural and cultural resources which are the core of its business. It also has the potential to do so………….Concerted action from governments, and all sectors of the industry, will be needed in order to realise this potential and to secure long term future development." UN Agenda 21 for the Travel & Tourism Industry As one of the fastest growing industries in the world, tourism has a potentially important role in the management of diminishing natural resources and degraded ecological services worldwide. This situation has contributed, in the last years, to the growth of eco-tourism as an alternative to mass tourism preferred by environmentally aware tourists. Faced with increasing environmental awareness of international organisations, national governments and the general pubic, the elements which characterise eco-tourism today will have to become the fundamental ingredients of the whole tourism industry of tomorrow.
