ECOTOURISM CONSUME ON ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE?

Ecotourism is a traveling to relatively undisturbed or uncontaminated natural areas with the specific objective of studying, admiring and enjoying the scenery and its wild plants and animals as well as any existing cultural manifestations found in these areas.

Base on ecotourism definition, we can see that this tourism is closely to nature. But close to nature does not mean that we can disturb the natural environment itself. Especially when the ecotourism is base on the forest sources, we see a lot of natural product like waterfall, green forest and others that make us feel calm during explore this site.

Sungai Lembing is one of the famous ecotourism place in Kuantan, Pahang. Ii famous with Pelangi Waterfall. It take long journey to achieve there and can be there with the 4x4 and Ranger because the topography is slope. So by this transportation, we can see that there have effects on the environment that produce from the smoke release. Carbon Monoxide give negative effects on the environmental especially during pick season there were a lot of trip for fetch the tourist to the waterfall area. We as human want to feel the nature and nature must face all the effect for our satisfaction. So, we can imagine this condition will continue until the nature cannot be patient anymore.
