An Interview with Vicky Smith, Founder of Earth Changers

As tourists worldwide book their holidays this summer, Alistair sits down with Earth Changers founder Vicky Smith to learn about the ecological impact of the tourism industry.

Together they discuss the positive effects of the sector, from sustainable development to conservationism. Would the African Elephant be alive today without the safari? Would tsunami-stricken communities ever recover without tourism?

But there is also risk of damage to community and environment, and what companies and governments need to do in response… Did you know, for example, that the term ‘greenwashing’ was first coined in the tourism sector?
