There is a wide-spread opinion that there are many advantages in ecotourism for local people and environment. However, some people do not think so.
In my opinion, ecotourism is helpful for environment and people who live there. First of all, eco-tourists do not cause damage to the environment. On the contrary, they make an effort to preserve nature and biodiversity, save wildlife. Secondly, ecotourism brings big income to the area. Eco-tourists pay for being on the territory, this financial support can improve standards of living of local people.
Nevertheless, some people believe that environment and local people do not benefit from ecotourism. Eco-tourists are usually not professional biologists, they are not aware of ecological problems deeply.
ecause of their unawareness, they can interfere in ecosystems, disturb animals and cause damage to the nature.
However, I cannot agree with the above opinion.
There is not enough evidence to prove that eco-tourists damage something. Instructors always instruct people on how to behave properly in the forest or in the mountains. So, eco-tourists cannot ruin flora and fauna.
In conclusion, I would like to say that ecotourism is not an adverse idea. Clearly, this kind of tourism brings benefits both for local people and environment.
