World Summit Erred By Ignoring Tourism, Editor Says

This is a good example of how to ask loaded questions.

Moving on to address the substance of the article, I've never been convinced by the ecotourism argument -- that tourism is the answer to making areas economically productive without chopping down their forests or digging up their minerals or other unsustainable practices. Maybe it's because I'm not much of a traveler, but I think Bellows over-estimates the potential of tourism as a growth industry.
