Eco Tourism – A Step Taken For Conserving Natural Habitat
Ecotourism is part of tourism which involves exploration of pristine and almost virgin land without disturbing the wildlife and natural habitat. Unlike the conventional form of tourism (mass or commercial tourism) it’s an alternative measure of creating low impact on environment by making tourist aware of negative impact generated by unfriendly methods of treating natural resources.
Ecotourism is a way of ecological conservation which in turn not only keeps the environment clean and healthy but also provides economic benefits to many people. This kind of tourism teaches travelers to be sensitive towards the local ecology, heritage and provide opportunity to interact with ethnic people making them feel like more bonded with local folklore.
Ecotourism creates Opportunity of employment, and economic development for the locals and infuse respect for different cultures and human rights among travelers. The movement for Ecotourism started during early 80s when a group of intellectual people thought to keep the pristine locations in natural way so that the coming generation could also take the pleasure of nature’s serene beauty which required least interventions by human beings. Let us see talk about theses points.
All carried non biodegradable items should not be left/ buried or burn in open. Take all wastage along and dispose them in municipality or nearby dustbins.
Cut the noise pollution, especially in wildlife sanctuaries and national parks because louder volume could disturb animal. Also take care of Holy shrines’ asceticism.
Don’t disturb the biodiversity of the region. Don’t take flora in form of cuttings or destroy them.
In water streams, lakes or pounds refrain from using pollutant like detergents and shampoos. Also one should not consume cigarettes, aerated drinks, drugs and throw the leftover in the wild.
Show respect to local traditions. It’s not in favor to tempt locals, especially the children to offers any foodstuffs.
Last but not the least, Tour Operators must create environment friendly travel packages and should include “Dos and Don’ts” list for visitors in travel packages.
In general the main criterion behind ecotourism is to make a “responsible traveler” for environment sustainability. A responsible travels must show appreciation for local flora, fauna, heritage and don’t intervene in natural habitat.
