My Role in Supporting and Improving Sustainability of Tourism Destinations as a Consumer and/or Industry Practitioner

As a consumer my role is to choose where I travel and plan Eco-efficient trips while at the destination. It is important to choose Eco-efficient destinations because it encourages sustainability practices. By choosing Eco-tourism destinations it provides more tourism and popularity to the destination, thus spreading the word of sustainability. Another way to support Eco-tourism is to post about destinations that support sustainability. The more information there is about Eco-tourism the more people will learn about sustainability and the importance of it.
