Author: Ecotourism is nature and culture based tourism that is ecologically sustainable and supports the well being of local communities. Some areas, like Kauai in Hawaii, are really embracing ecotourism in a unique way.
According to Wayne Nastri, the western regional administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, more than 95 million dollars has been committed to Hawaii within the past year to correct environmental violations while preventing future pollution, this is great news but only goes so far in correcting the problem, both tourists and local industries need to recognise the impact ecotourism can have on the envrionment and on the economy. To this end, environmentally responsible hotels known as “green hotels†use energy and natural resources in environmentally-friendly ways and give visitors a realistic Hawaiian experience without compromising the world around them. As a result, breathtaking natural wonders such as the majestic Na Pali coast can be found just steps away from many Kauai vacation rentals.
