Explanation:

1. For me, ecotourism seeks to protect the natural resources that we have in the present so that future generations have the opportunity to take advantage of them, while promoting social, cultural and economic growth of the local population.  According to other definitions, ecotourism is an environmentally responsible tourist modality. Its purpose is to visit and enjoy relatively unalterable natural areas as well as any cultural manifestation of the present or past, with the active participation of local populations. Ecotourism includes educational and interpretive content and tries to reduce negative impacts on the natural and socio-cultural environment as much as possible.

-<u>The Ministry of Tourism in Mexico defines Ecotourism in the following way: </u>"they are the trips that have the purpose of carrying out recreational activities of appreciation and knowledge of nature through contact with it." From another perspective, it is a tourist product aimed at those tourists who enjoy natural history, and who want to actively support and participate in the conservation of the environment.

-<u>The environmentalist architect and international consultant of Mexican origin, Héctor Ceballos Lascuráin, popularized in 1993 when he was included in the book “Ecotourism. </u>The Potential and the Pitfalls ”:

"Ecotourism is an environmentally responsible tourist modality, consisting of traveling to or visiting natural areas relatively undisturbed in order to enjoy, appreciate and study the natural attractions (landscape, wild flora and fauna) of said areas, as well as any cultural manifestation ( of the present and the past) that can be found there, through a process that promotes conservation, has a low negative environmental and cultural impact and fosters an active and socioeconomically beneficial involvement of local populations. ”

Ecotourism aims to achieve the preservation and maintenance of  natural ecosystems; tourism plays its role as a supplier of oil  economic that directly benefits local residents. Community  will provide their knowledge and services to tourists and they will benefit  economically.

- Ecotourism provides jobs and income to the local population.

-Provide environmental education to tourists.

-Create funds for purchase and supplies for improvement and protection of  natural areas. This is beneficial to attract future tourism.

- Motivates the preservation of the environment and the creation of new  or larger national parks, biosphere reserve, preservation  of forests, recreation areas, beaches and natural attractions.

Third world countries are important recipients of ecotourism. In  Brazil nature trips have become one of the new and more  great markets of economic income of the country. In south-central Africa, the  Rwanda's ecotourism is the third largest source of resources  economic.
