Tourism represents an important source of income. Most resource-poor countries, therefore, cannot afford to neglect the economic opportunities tourism offers. However, tourism often ends up destroying the landscape and culture that attracted visitors in the first place. Low-impact tourism is sustainable travel and leisure activities that directly benefit local communities. The society and culture and environment of the people who live in the tourist destinations are not damaged or destroyed either. Unfortunately, the environmental impacts of tourism can be devastating when profit takes precedence. As a result, it heavily depends on individuals travel responsibly as a “green tourist”. Being a green tourist starts eating out on trips with a philosophy of “buy local, eat and drink local.” Tourism expenditure within the destination can create induced benefits. Try not to go for the international fast-food chains, because most of the money from tourism may undergo leakage. Furthermore, food is an important part of the culture of a region, through its consumption gaining in-depth knowledge about the local cuisine and of the destination’s culture. Choosing locally made souvenirs and presents is another area where the tourist can be either a help or a hindrance, but never buy anything that’s made from an endangered species. Never pick any plants or flowers either. However, sometimes tourists behave very poorly while traveling. Therefore, the key factor in minimizing damage through tourism is to keep tourist groups to a management size and manage their movements and behavior. In fact, some popular attractions have tourist group size limit. For example, La Boqueria, the most famous market in Barcelona worldwide, banned tourist groups of more than 15 people in 2015.

「想像一下，當你在異鄉旅遊時，若選擇光顧全球連鎖品牌而非在地小攤販，你支付的這筆錢最終會存入當地居民的銀行帳戶，還是流向遠方的跨國企業總部？這對當地的經濟體系來說，算是一種『獲得』還是『流失』呢？」

- 完全正確！：你答對了！你選對了！你看，我就知道你行的！文章裡說要避開那些「國際連鎖速食店」，原因就是它們會造成資金的 leakage (漏損/外流)。這就像是把錢放進一個破洞的口袋，這些觀光客的錢，沒有好好地留在當地，去幫助那些辛辛苦苦經營的小店家，反而像水一樣，「漏」到很遠很遠的大企業那邊去了。這樣可不行啊！
