"In every walk with the nature, one receives far more than he seeks." Hey guys, lately we had a public speaking competition held on various issues related to environment and what can we youth do. This made me realize that environment is a huge ocean and all that we are doing is just a drop. In this background, I strongly believe that this topic plays a vital role in every individual's life. We all know the term 'sustainability' from our junior classes, but ever heard of 'sustainable tourism'? The soul purpose of this is to create an Eco-friendly place when you travel. Sustainable tourism, defined by the United Nations World Tourism Organization is, "Tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic,social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment and host communities." So its a sum up of making the best use of Environment, without causing any harm to the ecosystem. Lately, we can observe various approaches towards these. Now another question, what is Responsible Tourism? It's simple! As the world suggests, we can say its all about maintaining the resources wisely and make a clean and safe surrounding. Long story short, both of them have a common aim, that is to respect, and uphold the nature. Sustainability is the goal, by the holding hands and taking responsibility, can be achieved. "What we are doing to the forests of the world is nothing but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and one another." - MAHATMA GANDHI |
