Ecotourism

• Doesn't harm the environment and benefits the local people
• Involves conservation (protecting and managing the environment) and stewardship (taking responsibility for conserving the environment)
• These should involve local people and local organisations 
• Small-scale activity, with small numbers of people to an area at a time

Sustainable development

• Ecotourism helps this 
• It means improving the quality of life for people 
• Ecotourism helps areas to develop by increasing the quality of life for the locals - profits help build public facilities 
• The development is sustainable - done without damaging the environment
