Eco-Event 7: Spring Break

Since Spring Break is coming soon I figured I would discuss it. I found an article that was written in USA Today a while back and it talks about all of the college kids taveling to other states/countries and the amount of alcohol,drugs,and sex their having. It also mentions how hotels will have certain deals and good prices in order to attract a lot of people. Overall critics are saying that the promoters are the ones to be blamed for all of the madness that goes on during Spring Break

The reason I picked Spring Break was because as a college student and knowing other college students the main reason to travel is for the sun, alcohol, and opposite sex. Some of the beaches that get bombarded with tourists like Cancun and Florida coasts have so many people that the beaches get trashed. I can't imagine walking on a beach the next day and stepping on a beer can thats semi buried in the sand. Spring Break can really damage our enviroment with the trash and all the drunk idiots causing mayhem and in the ocean with all the junk that could possibly float around in it.
