Alright - Hello again, this is to follow up on Antipode 24's response if possible. If I registered here to give my opinion, only one, two now, it is because I am sensitive to ecology and my profession is linked to it, I fight for a sustainable economy and it is difficult at the moment. within a system that is first and foremost commercial. You have a shop to run, money to raise, I understand that perfectly but there is no ecological approach in all of this, you can try to mitigate the damage of tourism but that can only destroy more and more the biodiversity by bringing in tourists. “Discovering” biodiversity by destroying it is not coherent. So I repeat to people if they want to protect the environment the best thing is not to canoe at all but if they want to go down the Dordogne they should go to you because I have kept an excellent one souvenir, a particularly nice welcome. Two different concepts that for my part I dissociate your professional performance which was excellent and the relationship with ecology which is impossible in this activity. Thank you in advance for hearing it and have a good day.

Alright - Hello, the Dordogne is a magnificent river, the team is smiling and welcoming, even caring, but mass tourism is definitely not compatible with sustainable economic activity, we can do less worse, which they do, but we cannot do better, the river is a canoe highway which inevitably impacts the environment, nothing but the wear and tear of all this plastic must be found somehow because being the very nature of plastic which crumbles and disperses but does not disappear never and I'm not talking about the sunscreen that people slather on just before going into the water to re-apply right after and all this multiplied by thousands every day. In any case, even if it means going down the Dordogne, you might as well choose them, which in any case cannot change the very nature of tourism. Thank you very much for this superb walk and good luck with all these people to manage!
