I believe that the tourism industry can increase public awareness about certain issues around the world. Specifically, I believe that we need to protect our natural resources in the Amazon Rainforest ( and around the world) . The Amazon is a rich area of our world that benefits our human race more than we care about. It is our job to protect it.
The purpose of this blog is to explore how tourism has contributed to deforestation in the Amazon rainforest, and to show how tourism can help to promote conservation. When people see the Amazon rainforest first-hand, they seem to have a better appreciation for everything that it is. Once they have this experience, they can become ambassadors for eco-tourism options that will help preserve the vast natural resources in the Amazon.
