生态旅游与我国自然保护区的发展

传统旅游作为高层次的消费活动,在创造经济效益的同时,也产生了消极的负面影响,其最主要的负面影响是造成生态环境的恶化.生态旅游自1986年墨西哥国际环境会议提出以来,受到国际社会的普遍关注,并成为20世纪90年代最具活力的旅游方式.生态旅游有利于实现经济效益、生态效益和社会效益的综合平衡,避免了短视的投机行为.因此,生态旅游是我国自然保护区可持续发展的战略选择.

Eco- tourism and the Development of China's Natural Reserves

Traditional tourism, as a high level consuming activity, has brought about negative influences while producing profits. The worst consequence can be seen in the aggravation of environment. Eco tourism was initiated in 1986 at the International Environment Conference in Mexico. Since then, it has been greatly appreciated throughout the world and has become the liveliest practice in tourism of 1990's. Eco tourism helps achieve the comprehensive balance among economic benefit, ecological benefit and social benefit and avoid shortsighted speculation. Thus, it is the strategic alternative for the sustainable development of China's natural reserves.
