Most of its profits however, come from tourist activity. If for some reason the mall lost its popularity, it would lose its most critical source of income, and would probably diminish and die out. The environment also greatly contributes to the malls well-being. Because of where the mall is located, they do not have to worry about hurricanes or tornadoes of any kind. Several different parts of the mall are dependant upon the environment. For example, the artificial beach needs a source for water, the mall must have electricity for lights etc. and the list goes on. All in all, many different aspects affect this mall and all contribute to making it what it is today.
