How can EF analysis be used to evaluate tourism? Has this been done before and what was learned?
Based on EF analysis results, what are the key environmental issues of concern for tourism? What are some recommended ways to improve?
What are the limitations of EF analysis for assessing tourism? What are some things we care about in terms of sustainability that EF doesn’t cover? What about social and economic issues?
