Best Answer

By traveling, you increase your "carbon footprint" or the ammount of carbon dioxide gas generation you as a person are responsible for.

Ex: driving a car/taking a plane burns fuel and releases carbon dioxide.

This is bad for the environment because carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas.

Tourism can also be good for the planet if an individual is inspired to be a better Shepard of the world by learning more about it. Often those who have traveled feel a desire to protect the natural beauties of the world, after seeing them.
