'Sustainability is not just applicable to ecotourism, but can and should apply to any other type of tourism depending on how the various sub-sectors of the industry like accommodation, transportation, facilities and attractions are planned, developed and managed.' An ethical underlay built in educational programs would guide tourists to make informed choices. Instead of taking brands on board in promoting tourism and counting on them to build big hotels, local community should be empowered and they should be directly involved in decision-making so their dignity, culture and impacts of ecotourism activities, and practices bear minimum setbacks. #ecotourism #greentourism #climatechange

Pakistan is known for adventure tourism and ecotourism will thrive here, owing to the regions including forests, mountain ranges, all inclusive of attractions from brown bear safaris to markhor sighting. Many of these places are a once-in-a-lifetime experience. 'The magnitude of the ecotourism industry has been addressed by the International Ecotourism Society (TIES 2006), which claims that since 1990 ecotourism has experienced annual growth rates of 20–34 per cent; a number which has easily outpaced the tourism industry on the whole. By the year 2024, ecotourism holidays will have grown three times faster than conventional trips, representing 5 per cent of the global market (Starmer-Smith 2004)'. As these trends gain momentum, it would be useful for the tourism departments to empower local residents in order to facilitate a sustainable growth. There are going to be implications for both, the visitor and the host, and it will only thrive and benefit the country if citizens are educated, empowered, work for economic benefit and keep environment preservation as their top priority. #responsibletourism #ecotourism
