Reading Corner 1 Ecotourism1 2 In general, ecotourism means visiting natural areas far from densely-populated
ones—in the remote3 wilderness4 or in rural5 environments. However, in no way is ecotourism just about this. It deals with much more. According to the definition6 given by The International Ecotourism Society in 1990, ecotourism also has to do 7 with “improving the well-being of the environment and the local people.� In other 8 words, you need to be aware of the pollution and the impact you are creating on the
environment and minimize9 them. For example, you need to make sure that you travel to your destinations10 by means of the transportation that generates11 the least pollution. In addition to that, respecting and improving the local culture is important as well. Traditional tourists do not care for the environment and culture. They show no regard for12 them and exploit13 everything they come across at will, and the locals have to 14 put up with it. Due to this fact, biodiversity and cultural diversity are at risk of being
wiped out at tourist destinations. Ecotourism, on the other hand, promotes recycling, energy efficiency, water conservation 15, and the creation of plenty of economic opportunities for local communities. Ecotourists seek to16 coexist17 with the environment and the locals. In short, ecotourism is a better choice than traditional tourism.

中譯 生態旅遊 一般來說，生態旅遊的意思是去遠離人口稠密區域的自然區域旅遊 —遙遠的荒野 或是鄉村環境。然而，生態旅遊絕不只如此。它涉及更多層面。根據國際生態旅遊協會 在 1990 年的定義，生態旅遊也和「改善環境和當地居民的福祉」有關。也就是說，你 必須意識到你對環境的汙染和衝擊，並將之減至最低。舉例來說，你必須確認使用產生 最少汙染的交通方式到達目的地。此外，尊重和改善當地文化也很重要。傳統遊客並不 關心環境和文化。他們不尊敬它們，並且任意濫用他們碰到的每一樣東西，而當地人必 須忍受這些事。因為如此，觀光景點的生物多樣性和文化多樣性有徹底被摧毀的風險。 相反地，生態旅遊提倡回收、節能、省水和為當地社區創造許多經濟機會。生態旅人尋 求與環境和當地人共存。簡言之，比起傳統旅遊，生態旅遊是更好的選擇。
