27-] Wars .
Many things can cause a war like race , religion , domination and even simple idea rejections . All civilized and non-civilized governments , whatever may be their professions act on the principle that extension of territory and the absorption of adjacent or remote lands , so as to increase both the extend of country and the population over which they have away is a good in itself , quite irrespective of the consent of the peoples so absorbed and governed and even when the peoples are alien in race , in language and religion . They declare that such conquest and absorption is necessary for the national safety , for the increase of trade and for many other reasons .
The conditions which almost inevitably lead to war are the existence of specialized ruling and military classes to whom the possession of power and the excitements and rewards of successful war are the great interests of life . So long as the people permit these distinct and independent classes to exist and more than this continue to look up to them as superiors and as necessary for the proper government of the country and for the effective protection of individual and national freedom so long will these rules continue to make wars .
Almost without exception every war of modern times has been a dynastic war – a war conceived and carried out in the interests of the governing classes , but having no relation whatever to the well-being of the people who have been forced to fight each other . In every case the people suffer the loss or disablement of sons , husbands and fathers by the destruction of crops , houses and other property and by increased taxation due to the increase of armaments . Hence , the material and moral interests of the mass of the people of every country are wholly opposed to war , except in the one case of defending their country against invasion and conquest . Except in very rare cases a plebiscite fairly taken would decide against any other than a defensive war .
The casualties in World WAR 1 were about 11 million and the World War 11 were about 59 million . The financial cost of the World War 1 adjusted for 1990 dollar values was 196.0 billion dollars and the World War 11 2.093 billion dollars . The cost of Iraq war only up till 2009 was about 800 billion dollars .
God created Adam and Eve and their descendants to construct the Earth not to destroy it . To achieve that they must cooperate and live in love and peace not hatred , greed and war .
28-] Tourism .
Tourism nowadays is one of the most popular ways of spending free time . From educational point of view travelling lets people see the world , other peoples , cultures and traditions .
Travel and tourism take many different forms , from a trip only a few hours away from home to long distance travel overseas . In most countries the domestic tourism market is larger than the inbound market . Whether tourism is domestic or international , it involves visiting a destination away from the area in which one lives and using the services available in that destination .
What makes tourism special is that many of the different products and services in the field of tourism and travel are often supplied by different operators usually small or medium sized businesses in local ownership . This makes tourism a highly fragmented and diverse industry and so coordinated , industry-wide action is difficult to achieve .
Travel and tourism are the world’s largest industry and creator of jobs across national and regional economics . Jobs generated by travel and tourism are spread across the economy in retail , construction , manufacturing and telecommunications as well as directly in travel and tourism companies .To a greater degree than most activities travel and tourism depend on a wide range of infrastructure services - airports , air navigation , roads , railways and ports as well as basic infrastructure services required by hotels , restaurants , shops and recreation facilities .
Travel and tourism create besides jobs wealth and have tremendous potential to contribute to economically , environmentally and socially sustainable development in both developed countries and emerging nations . They have a comparative advantage in that their start up and running costs can be less compared to many other forms of industry development .
Tourism is a labor intensive industry and creates many job opportunities , especially for young people and part-time and full-time workers . In the tourism and hospitality and recreation industries alone , there are 50 categories of employment and approximately 200 classifications of occupations . Tourism can provide diversification making the local economy less reliant on a traditional base – e. g. agriculture and mining . Tourism creates opportunities for the establishment of new products , facilities and services and expansion of existing businesses .
The economical aspects also play a huge role in domestic market economy . Lots of people work in the tourist sector . What is more there are some countries like Malta where tourism is the basis for all its revenue . The World Tourism Council estimates that travel and tourism provides employment for more than 100 million people worldwide [ that is one in 16 workers ] and is responsible for over 7 % of the worldwide capital investment .
If travel and tourism are managed badly , they can have detrimental effect – fragile environments can be damaged and local cultures can be destroyed for example , the beaches of the Mediterranean Sea during summer and the monumental sites . These places require protective measures . But there are numerous good examples of where travel and tourism are acting as a catalyst for conservation and improvement of the environment and maintenance of local diversity and culture . There is a new kind of tourism friendly to the environment called eco-tourism – it preserves and maintain the environment .
Despite the difficulties caused by fragmentation and lengthy supply chains , there has been a steady growth in environmental good practice across the industry in recent years . There are examples of airlines and airports reducing pollution and noise impacts , cruise liners practicing marine conservation , hotels implementing energy consumption and waste disposal programs . There are excellent initiatives to improve the environmental management of travel and tourism businesses .
