ECOTOURISM
1. __________________________ 3. __________________________ 5. __________________________

Tourism will always have an impact
on the places visited. Sometimes
the impact is good, but often it’s
negative. For example, if lots of
people visit one place, then this can
damage the environment. The
question is – how can we minimize
the problems without preventing
people from travelling and visiting
places?
It’s great to talk about protecting the
environment, but how do you
actually do this? There are a
number of key points. Tourists
shouldn’t drop litter, they should
stay on the paths, they shouldn’t
interfere with wildlife and they
should respect local customs and
traditions.
But, of course, things aren’t so
black and white. Living in a place of
natural beauty doesn’t mean that
you shouldn’t benefit from things
like better roads. As long as the
improvements benefit the local
people and not just the tourists, and
the local communities are consulted
on plans and changes, then is there
really a problem?

2. __________________________ 4. __________________________ 6. __________________________

The main aim of ecotourism is to
reduce the negative impact that
tourism has on the environment and
local people. The idea is to
encourage tourists to think about
what they do when they visit a
place.
Some people see ecotourism as a
contradiction. They say that any
tourism needs infrastructure –
roads, airports and hotels. The
more tourists that visit a place, the
more of these are needed and, by
building more of these, you can’t
avoid damaging the environment.
In 2002 the United Nations
celebrated the ‘International Year of
Ecotourism’. Over the past twenty
years, more and more people have
started taking eco-holidays. In
countries such as Ecuador, Nepal,
Costa Rica and Kenya, ecotourism
represents a significant proportion
of the tourist industry.
