Research question: To what extend does the expansion and focus on ecotourism in
Costa Rica contribute to environmental degradation?
Stand: Although there are many environmental benefits driven from the
expansion of ecotourism in Costa Rica, the fact that the industry is key to the
country’s economic development has invariably led to high levels of environment
degradation. The
government should provide adequate education to tourists, impose stricter
regulations, provide more funding towards the preservation of flora and fauna,
thereby reducing the impact of environmental degradation.
