The massive influx of 🇨🇳 tourists is ruining the environment in the scenic Sai Kung area in Hong Kong and causing ecological damage there… They’re trampling on corals and digging up marine organisms — sea stars, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, conches and clams — in the city’s Unesco Global Geopark area. They’re littering and illegally lighting fires for cooking. And they’re carrying the 🇨🇳 even when they’re hiking or camping… 🤦🏻‍♂️ The geopark became a tourist hotspot after it received hype on popular 🇨🇳 RedNote / Xiaohongshu, with many users sharing pictures and selfies of themselves visiting the island. scmp.com/news/hong-kong
