( 5.0 points) The market for tourism in remote areas is booming faster than ever before. Countries across the world are active promoting their “wilderness” regions – such as mountains, Arctic lands, desserts, small islands and wetlands - to highly – spending tourists. The attraction of these areas is obvious: by definition, wilderness tourism requires little or no initial investment. But that does not mean that there is no cost. Like the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development recognized, these regions are fragile (i.e. highly vulnerable of abnormal pressures) not just in terms of the culture of their local inhabits. The three most significant types of fragile environment in these respects are evergreen platues, mountains and Arctic areas. An important characteristic is their marked seasonability. Consequently, most human’s activeness, including tourism, are limited to clearly defined parts of the year. Tourists are drawn to these regions by their natural beauty and the unique culture of its people. And poor governments in these areas have welcomed the “adventure tourists”, grateful for the currency they bring. For several years, tourism is the primary source of foreign exchange in Nepal and Bhutan. Tourism is also a key element in the regional economics of Arctic zones such as Lapland and Alaska’s Monument Valley.
