THE INFLUENCE OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON SUSTAINABLE TOURISM: AN ENVIRONMENTAL THREAT

Irrational exploitation has devastated the ecotourism resources. Therefore, forming the legal system of ecotourism as soon as possible and having laws to abide by can ensure the sustainable development of ecotourism in our country. The goal is to bring to surface the course of action taken by local agents about socio-environmental aspects. What is effective at stake is the transformation of reality upon the opening of channels towards the participation of civil society in the decision-making process. In this paper, we attempt to explore the idea of sustainability within our relationship to the natural environment. Sustainability assumes that natural and human technological resources can be utilized while maintaining the environment. Sustainability must also be understood within the context of ecological, cultural, social, economic and ethical realms. In putting this in perspective, the idea of sustainability becomes more concrete. Amongst a range of environmental constraints that are of necessity playing an increasing role in social development planning, climate change represents the most urgent and far-reaching challenge of our time. This paper is theoretical, with a keen eye on the practical implications of ideas concerning sustainable tourism and enhancing our natural environment
