Question what is the main purpose of echo tourism?why is it necessary?
Answer I assume that you mean "eco-tourism", and its primary purpose (like any other industry) is to make money. It isn't necessary in any way, but it is a way for people to make money by preserving their natural resources as opposed to harvesting them and selling them.
