Ecotourism in Thailand Tour companies in Thailand advertise jungle treks, scuba diving and other expeditions as «nature tourism».
But the popularity of these activities has caused environmental problems.
Like mass tourism, mass jungle trekking can damage the ecosystem and the living and working conditions of local people.
As a solution to the problem, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) introduced the idea of ecotourism here a few years ago.
Ecotourism is tourism that is environmentally friendly and that also benefits local communities.
Meeya Hawa is a local conservation worker in the fishing village of Jao Mai.
He explained some of the problems.
«When the tourists come, they stay at comfortable resort hotels and ignore our small hunts.
They go to the island by the resort’s boats and eat at the resort’s restaurant.
And they throw rubbish into the sea».
But things are changing.
In the mountain village of Kiriwong, the villagers have started an Ecotourism Club with rules to protect the environment.
The club has limited the number of mountain trekkers to only thirty a month.
Each trekker pays about 3000 baht (750 US dollars) for a four - day trek which includes food, accommodation, sightseeing and a donation to the community.
Many tourists complain and say the mountain should be for everyone.
The director of TAT in the area also thinks Kiriwong should lower the price to attract tourists but the club doesn’t agree.
Nipat Boonpet, the club’s secretary, says “Tourists only think of what they pay for food, travelling and accommodation.
Nature for them is free.
It is not.
” It now seems that if there isn’t a real change in the thinking of both tour operators and tourists, the natural environment will be destroyed.

Indeed, nowadays people travel more, and further, than they used to.
The main reasons for tourism are : recreation, leisure and business.
When travelling for recreation, people want to escape their stressful daily routine and to relax.
Beach holidays are an example of leisure tourism.
Business trips involve going to some distant place in order to settle business issues.
B)When people travel, they broaden their horizons.
Whether on a business trip or on a honeymoon, people want to explore the place they are in.
They go on excursions, try new activities like diving or mountain climbing, learn about the historical background of the place, and buy souvenirs to remind them of the local cultural peculiarities.
Sometimes they find out amazing facts about people and places, and about themselves, too!
C)Trips can be spontaneous or well - planned, but before any planning is done, you need to decide where you want to go.
Lots of people prefer places where they can enjoy the sea and the sun, that’s why tourism in countries like Turkey, Thailand, Bali, Cyprus is quite a profitable industry.
People who like winter leisure activities go to ski resorts in France, Austria, Iceland, Serbia and so on.
D)A new branch of tourism is ecotourism.
It involves visiting relatively untouched places in remote areas.
Ecotourism is often misinterpreted as any form of tourism involving wildlife - but it’s completely different from jungle tourism or safari.
Eco - tourists are against disturbing the environment ; even taking photos is not recommended.
Take only memories and leave only footprints is a very popular slogan for them.
E)By educational tourism, most people mean different versions of Learn and Travel Programmes for students.
But it’s not only for the young and brave.
Lots of training and educational programmes for adults are offered in different corners of the world.
Retired people participate in these programmes too.
They gladly enroll on overseas courses ranging from gardening and design to computer skills and programming.
F)With all the benefits of travelling, it’s still a very expensive activity and may not fit every budget.
To reduce the costs, avoid travelling in high season when flight tickets, hotels, food and excursions are overpriced.
Remember that, as well as the well - known, popular, and therefore most expensive, destinations, there are less prestigious but even more interesting places.
When planning a trip, find out about low - cost airlines, discounts and special offers.
G)If possible, consider means of transport other than the plane.
Rapidly increasing numbers of flights have put the environment in danger.
Planes pollute the air, which results in global warming.
In fact, tourism is not harmless fun as many may think : new airports and tourist infrastructure, pollution, and crowds of noisy tourists make wild animals migrate, which may decrease their population or even make them extinct.

There are many names for Australia - Oz, Down Under, and the official name, the Commonwealth of Australia, The first were convicts who had been transported from Britain.
But after gold was discovered in the 1850s, thousands of free settlers left the cold, dark industrial towns of Britain to find their place in the sun.
Australia has a population of about sixteen and a half million people.
Over eighty per cent Australia's population is of British origin.
However, in recent years most immigrants have come from other European countries such as Italy, Greece or Poland, or from Asian countries.
English is the national language, cricket is the national game, and they drive on the left.
Australia is a huge country and has a wide range of climates from the tropical rain forests of the Northern Territory and northern Queensland to the mild temperate climate of Victoria and Tasmania in the south east.
About two - thirds of the land is desert or semi - desert.
As a result most of the central and western parts of Australia are uninhabited or inhabited only by sheep.
Australia has ten times as many sheep as people and is the world's largest producer of wool.
Sydney, with its beautiful harbour, bridge and opera house, is the largest city, with three and a hall million inhabitants, but it isn't the capital.
Australia is the federal state and, like the United States of America, it has a separate capital city - Canberra.
The Head of Government is the Prime Minister, but the Head of State is still the British monarch.
Mining, industry and agriculture are Australia's most important sources of income.
More recently, tourism has become important, too.
Tourists come to enjoy Australia's warm climate, to see the unique animals, such as the kangaroo and the koala.
