Heat is on for tourism hopefuls

Professor David Bellamy, chairman of the British Airways Tourism for Tomorrow global judging panel said: “Holidaymakers make the best ambassadors of what we have come to know as ‘eco-travel’. They see, first-hand, the impact that tourism makes throughout the world, whether it’s on the beaches of Lanzarote, on the coral reefs of the Maldives or in the Himalayas. We need them to tell us where people are trying to combat the sometimes harmful effect of tourism, so that their children and grandchildren can enjoy the same delights years from now.”
