TerraGreen
|April 2023
In this article, Heemal Handoo Bhat dwells into the concept of green holidays or ecotourism. Green holiday chiefly involves holidaying in destinations where birds, animals, and cultural legacy are the chief attractions. Ecotourism strives to provide tourists a deeper knowledge about the impression of human beings on their surroundings and to facilitate a genuine acknowledgement of the natural habitats
Green holidays means ecotourism, a kind of tourism aimed at non-native, often endangered, natural environments, to aid in conservation endeavours and observe fauna. It includes visiting sensitive, pure, and comparatively less disturbed natural places. It means accountable travel to natural spaces, protecting the environment, and bettering the sustenance levels of the natives. Its purpose could be to edify the traveller, to offer financial assistance for ecological preservation, to majorly help in the economic progress and political emboldening of local communities, or to create a sense of honour for varied cultures and contribute in human safety. Since the 1980s, ecotourism has been undertaken as a crucial attempt by environmentalists, so that the posterity may enjoy going to destinations relatively unadulterated by man’s interference.
