    I believe ecotourism is one way leading toward environmental conservation; protection of local biodiversity, and at the same time is a great opportunity for improving the local economy. Also, ecotourism gives the opportunity for sharing the beauty of such rich and abundant species and ecosystems with the world travelers. Unfortunately for Costa Rica, which is shown that ecotourism can be successful story in terms of bringing serious capital and investments, but I found it problematic once reading the stories of the local people from the case study provided. The way I understood was that the idea of ecotourism was to bring this beautiful Central American country up to date with the global modernization and globalization, by attracting foreign investments being tourism or pharmaceutical industry. But in the process seems that few individuals are cashing in on the expense of the disadvantaged nature and indigenous people, who make this county amazing in the firs place.…

    Coral reefs provide nearly $30 billion each year in net benefits in goods and services to world economies, including, tourism, fisheries and coastal protection, but that number could diminish greatly very soon (Cesar et al. 2003). In fact, 30% of coral reefs are at risk of being lost in about the next thirty years. Millions depend on coral reefs for nutrition and income, and if the coral reefs suffer, it is very likely that people who rely on coral reef ecosystems will suffer as well.

    Taking a sustainable vacation is challenging. If you want your destination to encompass ecotourism principles and be environmentally responsible, you will want to find experiences that involve the local community. For example, an African wilderness experience should involve local guides who have a stake in protecting the biodiversity and the natural environment. Africa, especially South Africa and Botswana, are popular destinations because both counties have opportunities to experience the wilderness without harming the wildlife. Guides show visitors that maintaining healthy ecosystems to support the wildlife is critically important, hoping that you will go home and begin supporting conservation organizations.…

    Tourism is one of the fastest growing industries with international tourism accounting for 9% of the total GDP and one in every eleven jobs are related to tourism (Meleddu, Pulina, 106, 67). However, tourism by itself leads to various negative externalities on the environment, socio-economy, and local culture (Meleddu, Pulina, 106, 67).

In the past 30 years, there has been a shift in tourism towards sustainability in terms of literature with the focus being on ecotourism and community empowerment (Boley, Maruyama,…

    This bibliography was constructed with the aim to provide the appropriate information on the different types of way that humans affect wildlife in New Zealand.

This material should provide the appropriate knowledge to understand…
