"Biden's Lake Tahoe Visit Highlights Overtourism Struggles for Locals"

As President Biden vacations in Lake Tahoe, the community is grappling with the issue of overtourism and the need to balance economic sustenance with preserving the natural beauty of the area. The influx of tourists, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, has strained resources, caused traffic congestion, and led to environmental issues such as trash and graffiti. Local leaders are working on a plan to manage the surge in visitors, including improving public transit and increasing workforce housing. The challenge lies in finding a balance between welcoming tourists and minimizing their impact on the region's environment and quality of life for residents.
