It explores the positive and negative impacts on the natural and human scenic environment by the development of tourism and sports tourism. Thus, this paper studies the relation between tourism, sports tourism and environment protection from the different tourism development levels of two cities. This study concludes with the following results:(1) Lack of understanding by the residents of the relationship between tourism and environment is related to the low educational level and low monthly income. Lack of understanding by the residents of the relationship between sports tourism and natural environment is related to the low educational level and shadow knowledge of sports tourism.(2) The development process of tourism and sports tourism did not fully take into account its positive impacts on natural environment. Therefore, it makes people's understanding of the positive impacts on natural environment and the actual situation not in consistency. In other words, the majority of residents acknowledge the positive role of tourism and sports tourism on natural environment, but their understanding is different from actual impacts.(3) Residents'evaluation of tourism water quality, air quality, noise, and scenic congestion is strongly subjective, not a true reflection of the reality; this is due to the low level of education. Residents'evaluation of sports tourism water quality, air quality, noise, and scenic congestion is strongly subjective, not a true reflection of the reality; this is due to the low level of education, unfamiliarity of sports tourism, as well as the limited range of sports tourism participation in their own city.(4) The positive impact of tourism and sports tourism development to the scenic environment is limited, because the tourism and sports tourism scenic development and environment protection are not fully integrated.(5) The human environment of tourism and sports tourism area is severely polluted. Visitors'uncivilized behavior, tourism and scenic service industry's greedy, fraud and other unethical behavior are the main reasons. |
