A chunk of prime real estate inside public national parks
An emerging threat to some of the last wild places

"Australia is at the forefront of private tourism development inside national parks and reserves – the trend ... is changing the nature of the country’s protected natural places."

“What has happened, just in the last few years, is that particular individuals have been granted rights by the state national parks agencies to build lodges inside national parks...Australia’s national parks became a battleground between conservation and commerce."

"Nature is disappearing at the greatest rate in human history...Public land in wild places should never be handed over for private development." >>

Addressing overtourism

"Experts and operators say overtourism isn't just a matter of overcrowding, but also change to local areas in ways that disadvantage residents. The biggest impact of overtourism is the loss of a region's original value and character."

"Businesses naturally begin prioritising tourists over local residents because it becomes more profitable. As a result, everyday convenience for residents decreases, and the unique local identity can slowly disappear."
