For many islands, their social, economic and environmental well being is tied strongly to the fate of a single sector: tourism. But badly planned tourism risks depleting biodiversity, degrading land and polluting the seas.

Joining us to shed more light on this paper is Julian Hyde, the General Manager of Reef Check Malaysia.
