The Glamis Dunes may be controversial because environmentalists believe that buggie riding is unnecessarily dangerous and causes pollution. They believe that too much fossil fuel contributes to Climate Change. On the other hand, people claim they want to enjoy life as much as the next person. They claim they are appreciating nature and having fun in it without causing too much harm. Many people do not litter anyway, this is also partly due to environmentalists efforts.
