Killing “The Golden Goose”

• Example: Candi Dasa, Bali, Indonesia

Bali - IndonesiaA popular tourist destination known for:

-natural attractions-perfect climate and relaxed atmosphere-this island of flowers, temples and friendly people is considered a real gem by travelers worldwide.

-This tropical island is one of the most stunning, and yet, now dangerous destinations on the planet. Recent terrorism attacks here and in other areas of Indonesia have stifled western tourism rather dramatically.

Candi Dasa

In the 1970s and 1980s, the area received a large amount of investment in tourism and a construction boom. To fuel the construction of beach bungalows, new homes and restaurants, the offshore reef was mined for lime to make cement and other construction materials.

This removed the coastal barrier that had protected the beach which was undermined and washed away. Local hotel owners constructed a series of T-shape groins jutting out into the water in an attempt to preserve the beach, with mixed results

Versus a different kind of sustainable

Not just to feel good, but also good for the pocket

• reduction in energy use, savings• solid waste reduction• water usage

Water savings example

• Per room we sue about 50,000 gallons of water!

• At a cost of $2 per 1000 gallons that is $100 per room per year

• Add about $100 for waste water cost. • For a 400 room hotel $80,000 – if you could

save 25%, that is $20,000

What does the consumer say?

• Another important reason are market conditions, what does the consumer want, what do tour operators say?
