Eco/Sustainable Tourism

Sustainable tourism, or eco-tourism, involves responsible travel to natural areas that incorporates environmental, economic, and social sustainability principles. It aims to minimize the negative impact on the environment and local cultures, while maximizing the positive benefits for people and wildlife. It involves supporting conservation efforts by promoting sustainable practices, and observing wildlife in their natural habitats without disrupting their behavior or causing harm. Sustainable tourism also benefits local communities through job creation, economic development, and cultural preservation, while providing visitors with authentic and meaningful travel experiences. Ultimately, sustainable tourism strives to ensure the long-term viability of natural resources and cultural heritage, while promoting environmental awareness and education.
