Ecotourism: Green problem or green solution?

The reason why I am interested in this article is because I love to travel like this kind and I want to know that if I support other people to join the Ecotourism, it is going to be positive or negative on the nature.

The Travelling that can preserve wildlife and nature is called Ecotourism. Its purpose is to do outdoor activities in the natural places such as seeing birds . But some people do not think that is really good for environment. They think it also can decay the quality of wildlife and wild places. In case of the Galapagos, a number of tourists has increased every year ,and this impacts to wildlife’s living. People has developed the island without the awareness of its consequences. People merge to replace the wild places. Another important problem is carbon dioxide emission. If people around the world are interested to go enjoying these activities and the places that they have to go are not in their countries or continents, they have to fly to the destination. In each flight, a plane have to spend a plenty of fuel and emit carbon. This is a major factor that destroys the atmosphere. All in all, no one can treat the nature as well as it does.

In my opinion, ecotourism is another way to travel with less damage to the environment. There are several activities that we can participate, but those activities still have the gap between good and bad things (Mother Nature Network, 2009).
