Good morning! I am an IB student conducting a research project on the impact of tourism-related sustainability efforts in Bali. My goal is to understand how waste management programs and ecotourism initiatives are perceived by both residents and tourists.

I have created a short survey to gather opinions and experiences related to environmental sustainability in Bali. The survey will take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete and your input would be incredibly valuable to my research and data collection.

All responses are completely anonymous and your data will be stored securely. Your participation would mean a lot to me — thank you so much for helping me with my research! [link under review]

5 million tourists create 5 million lots of waste that massively outweighs any minor good that sustainable tourism efforts manage, and that's before the pollution from all the flights they take to get to the island.

Add the social impact in the forms of drug use, alcohol abuse, and prostitution, and you have a bloody mess.

Then you have to consider quality of life issues and how the arse end of foreign culture impacts on local children.
