| I'm referring primarily of sanctimonious tour companies that advertise that they are making a difference somehow. Like the fact that a small percentage of tourists who are likely already environmentalists traveling with them has any real affect on anything. I would say it is likely though that those tourists will have lower impact on the forest than if they went on their own. That's the only effect I can see. That's the scam IMO, that they claim that they are more than they are. Also scammy is when you get one of those cheeseball tours with the caged animals etc...
