Anyone visited Japan?

[Power_uP]

Have any of you guys ever heard of 'tourism pollution'? I just found out what it is and I think now I may not visit Japan. I've had an interest in the country and its culture since I was six years old, but I definitely don't want to contribute to a tourism problem in the country.

People can really suck when it comes to tourism. I remember my father telling me that tourists caused a lot of problems in his home town every summer (he's from Yarmouth).

If any of you have ever watched NHK World, then it gives you the impression that tourists are welcome and necessary in the country, but now I can't help but think that foreigners need to stay away from Japan.
