Abstract

Goa – the name evokes an image of sun, sand, sea and hordes of tourists. Tourists, who bring in their wake mounting garbage and destruction of the local ecology. This picture is true for most of the sandy beaches that Goa is famous for. However, there is a new awareness spreading, especially among the locals and a section of the state government, that this kind of tourism does not last long. That it only leads to the proverbial killing of the goose that lays the golden eggs, and that there are other ways of bringing tourists in.
