As more people become aware of the environmental challenges facing our planet, they are increasingly drawn to these locations, hoping to experience their beauty and uniqueness before it's too late

This trend not only reflects growing environmental consciousness among travellers but also highlights the urgent need for conservation efforts

The allure of these destinations is often heightened by media coverage, environmental reports, and a growing public awareness of the effects of climate change

This has led to an increase in tourism driven by a mixture of curiosity, urgency, and the desire to witness these places before they change or disappear forever

The paradoxical result is a spike in traffic to areas least able to cope with environmental pressures
