In recent years, tourists have paid attention to preserving both the culture and environment of the places they visit. However, some people think that it is impossible to be a responsible tourist. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

With the support of developed transportation,

tourism

has been recognized as a sign of the modern lifestyle.

However

,

tourism

has

also

been implicated in the destruction of indigenous cultures and the natural

world

. I completely agree that

tourism

development can absolutely be synonymous with the preservation of our

world

. The

first

reason for my belief is that the tourists these days are aware of the diversity of cultures. Most tourists these days travel mainly because they are eager to explore the incredible natural

world

and to learn about other exotic cultures. They usually make full use of the Internet to search for information about the destination before they arrive.

This

self-training will prevent them from partaking in intrusive and disrespected actions toward another

culture

. A

further

step of government authorities implementing regulations will protect the uniqueness of local cultures from suffering from assimilation.

Furthermore

, the headlines transferred through

the media

have grabbed people’s attention about environmental problems, and

thus

, shaped people’s concept of preserving the natural

world

.

This

leads to conscious perception about

the global warming phenomenon

, greenhouse effects and urbanization’s consequences. Eco-

tourism

takes root from people’s desire to experience greenness and eco-friendly surroundings. Tourists’ appreciation of

nature

has made them take action to protect the primitive beauty of the earth. With better guidance and organization

from

for

the

tourism

industry, tourists will definitely effort to establish a

world

free from destruction. The opponents of

tourism

may argue that it is too easy for tourists to leave their footprints in

nature

and their own

culture

whenever they arrive, gradually destroying both

nature

and

culture

.

Although

it is true that tourists can invade the outside

world

, people should be cognizant of the government’s power. If governments enact effective measures to
