PART B_2

In the past years, the number of people who have been traveling has been increasing. Because of that, the government, along with some experts, has been promoting ecotourism, which is also known as responsible traveling.
Ecotourism adopts practices that are more environment-friendly, protects the natural and cultural sites, and supports local communities. It aims to develop tourist attractions that benefit not only travelers but also the local people and the environment. In this way, they can ensure the development and sustainability of tourism in the long run.
Naturalists came up with a guide that would help travelers understand the importance of the environment and how people could contribute to protecting it. This guide opened up the minds of many tourists to be more careful about their actions. In addition to that, ecotourism provides job opportunities for local people. Also, it ensures that indigenous groups remain on their ancestral land to help them preserve their culture.
