abc in red It is now possible for scientists and tourists to travel to remote natural environments, such as the South pole. Do advantages outweigh disadvantages? Nowadays, visiting to areas, such as Antarctica, that are away from our living places is no longer an unrealistic dream. I think this trend has more benefits than drawbacks. Numerous merits will be listed and explained in this paragraph. Firstly, traveling to remote areas allows tourists to learn about some aspects of the nature that are not accessible on mass media, thereby broadening their views. For example, they can appreciate the unique natural scenery like icebergs, observe rare wildlife and their habitats closely, which expands their knowledge on ecosystems(50words). They can also comprehend those knowledge effectively (c), since the first-hand exposure to the environment enables them to learn in an engaging manner. ( 25 words) Additionally, the possibility of going to distinct areas can facilitate research on topics including weather forecasting, endangered species conservation and global warming, and etc (c). This is because valuable data and samples can be collected from those areas ( a) so that the reliability of research results will be enhanced. (b)(42 words) 135 words recipes: a verb b, thereby c For example, a verb b, which c c, since a verb b c. This is because a so that b However, the associated problems cannot be ignored. The most obvious concern is the damage on ecosystems. If those destinations lure a large number of visitors, human activities will increase, jeopardising habitats of flora and fauna. For instance, it is reported that the ever-increasing tourists in Antarctic area has exacerbated global warming, threatening the survival of lots of animals. ( 54 words) What is more, the challenging weather
conditions in untouched areas will make tourists vulnerable to ailments or even lose their lives. Undeniably, it is mainly the harsh weather in Mount Everest that has caused the death of many mountain climbers and scientists. ( 46 words) 109 words In summary, though visiting to distinct areas will cause negative impacts, they can be avoided by releasing strict environment protection laws and offering tourists training to cope with challenging weathers. Therefore, the prevalence of this tourism has pros than cons. / ( positive influences than risks)
