Article Abstract:

Benetton has sponsored a campaign in Venice, Italy, that aims to focus on the impact of tourism, and some local people are critical that tourists could be frightened away. Greenpeace is organizing a tour showing the environmental problems of Venice. There is a similar concern in Cambridge, England, where the city council wishes to lessen the impact of tourism.
