The Kyoto Protocol, or Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, is an international treaty on climate change.
New word
treaty: a formally concluded agreement between states
This refers to other planned events of international significance that do not involve sports. One of the most important events South Africa has hosted was the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD), a global conference held in Johannesburg in 2002. Another example is the G8 Summit. Hotels and guesthouses as well as restaurants and tourist attractions in and around the cities in which these events are held benefit from the influx of delegates, as well as the journalists who come from all over the world to cover such events. The example below illustrates the effect the World Summit on Sustainable Development had on tourism in South Africa.
INDUSTRY EXAMPLE
The World Summit on Sustainable Development in 2002, Johannesburg hosted the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD). The event attracted more than 40 000 delegates from all over the world. One of the themes of the conference was the shortage of water, a problem many countries are now facing.
G8 Summit
The Group of Eight (G8) is a forum for the governments of eight large world economies. The group comprises France, Germany, Japan, Italy, the UK, USA, Canada and Russia. Each year there is a summit meeting of the G8 heads of government. The 2012 G8 Summit was hosted in the USA. The 2013 Summit was held in Northern Ireland, UK.
Climate change can mean different weather patterns. Hurricanes can become larger and can occur in places where they do not normally occur, such as above or below 30 degrees latitude. Drought and floods can occur in places where they do not normally occur. Entire ecosystems can change, such as deserts.

UNIT 2
The positive and negative impacts of global events on international tourism
Global events can have either a positive or negative effect on the number of international visitors to a country. As you learnt in Unit 1, global events attract many visitors from several countries and help promote the city and country in which they take place. Similarly, global events can have negative effects on a destination; for example, increased noise, pollution, litter and traffic congestion.
In this unit you will learn that global events have: ✔ many positive effects on tourism ✔ some negative effects on tourism.
The positive impact of global events
You saw in Unit 1 that global events not only attract visitors to a country, but also help to advertise the country through the media and word-of-mouth communication.
The positive effect of media on international visitor numbers
Foreign journalists follow international events and inform their readers or viewers in their home countries about the event through television and radio programmes, the Internet and newspaper and magazine articles. The reports usually give information on the area where the event takes place. A positive atmosphere, beautiful or interesting setting and enthusiastic comments by those attending the event will often entice tourists to visit the area.
The positive effect of participants on international visitor numbers People attending or participating in global events need a venue, accommodation, meals, entertainment, shops and transport and the providers of such services all benefit financially from the event. For example, hotels, restaurants, curio shops and tour buses benefited from the teams who arrived in South Africa to play in the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Delegates or athletes then tell their colleagues, friends and family about their positive experiences, which then helps to promote the destination.
The positive effect of sports fans on international visitor numbers
Delegates will support and recommend a well-run venue to others.
Fans who attend sporting events need similar facilities and services as the athletes and players, but are likely to use a greater variety of accommodation,
