It is good to use ecotourism because it not only helps to conserve the environment but also help to create jobs for the locals. Ecotourism also helps to preserve the culture of the area's locals. Plants and animals still can have untouched habitats because there is less need for big and shiny buildings.Singapore incorporates a lot of ecotourism in the Mandai and Northern / Northwestern area of the country. This is also done around the bay area where we have Gardens by the Bay. However, I feel like it is too curated and think that we should preserve more of the natural heritage we have rather than rebuilding and relocating the natural heritage.]]> 2017-10-29 17:47:22 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201514712 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515115 This topic is very interesting because it is practical. When I grow up, I hope that I can be the one to change things in our society. Even though we are a country that practises as much ecotourism as we can (e.g. zoo, MacRitchie areas...) I think it is not enough. We need to incorporate more conservation.

However, at the same time, I also think that this is difficult to do because we don't have as much space and land as other countries. Sometimes we need to convert land into tourist spots to really boost the economy. We may not be able to afford to curate and retain our natural environment because of this.]]> 2017-10-29 17:50:49 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515115 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515449 SAMPLE STUDENT WORK]]> 2017-10-29 17:53:41 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515449 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515476 SAMPLE STUDENT WORK]]> 2017-10-29 17:53:54 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515476 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515512 SAMPLE STUDENT WORK]]> 2017-10-29 17:54:15 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515512 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515577 SAMPLE STUDENT WORK]]> 2017-10-29 17:54:44 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_csm/ReflectionPadletLink/wish/201515577
