Dear all, let us improve and make a mind for Nepal Tourism Year 2011. Each event could be friendy to nature so we as well as tourism can sustain evergreenly. Your sinngle event and effort makes a huge difference. please let us be a model for changing phenomenon of this leading world.
Eco-tourism: Perhaps the most over-used and mis-used word in the travel industry. But what does it mean? The Ecotourism Society defines it as "responsible travel to natural areas which conserves the environment and improves the welfare of the local people". A walk through the rainforest is not eco-tourism unless that particular walk somehow benefits that environment and the people who live there. A rafting trip is only eco-tourism if it raises awareness and funds to help protect the watershed. A loose interpretation of this definition allows many companies to promote themselves as something that they are not. If true eco-tourism is important to you, ask plenty of questions to determine if your trip will help "conserve and improve" the places you visit.
