Ecotourism Is a Commitment Towards Preserving the Natural Ecosystems

 

 


 The world is going through massive changes every second and many of the changes are happening due to anthropological reasons. Human behavior, as said by psychologists, is a very complex phenomenon. While on one side the behavior results in productivity, in other scenarios they result in some catastrophic damages. For years we have bent the ecosystems to suit our needs such as deforestation, building up reservoirs on rivers, tourism, etc. Mass tourism results in pollution and the natural harmony of the place breaks.


The International Ecotourism Society (TIES) defines ecotourism as a way of traveling responsibly to conserve the environment of the natural areas. It also includes the wellbeing of the local people and involves education and interpretation. There are tourism industries, institutions, and a network of individuals engaged in sustainable traveling projects and are educated about ecological issues


Importance of Ecotourism

Ecotourism is crucial for both the planet and the people. As an eco-tourist, it is very satisfactory to travel without carrying the guilt of harming the natural balance of the place. This helps the traveler to get accustomed to local cultures without having a hand in polluting them


Advantages of Ecotourism

In many countries such as Madagascar, Kenya, Nepal, Ecuador, and Costa Rica, ecotourism is not just a marginal activity, it is the industry on which the countries' economy is based.


  • Conserving cultural and biological diversity through the protection of the ecosystem.

  • Promoting a sustainable way of using biodiversity by creating job opportunities for local populations

  • Eco-tourism also leads to a mix of cultures and communities

  • Involving local communities to work with the authorities to protect the environment

  • Traveling to places with unspoiled beauty with minimal effect on the surroundings
