Be a Cool Vietnam Explorer

Tourism has been named as a “smokeless” industry. However, this does not mean that tourism has no impact on the ecosystem and the environment. 

In addition to the unexpected effects of tourism caused by unsustainable investments and long-standing impacts on the atmosphere from emissions released during traveling, tourists’ irresponsible behaviors also lead to unexpected consequences on nature.

Due to this fact, to promote the message of sustainable tourism to visitors, PanNatrue issues the brochure “Be a Cool Vietnam explorer” calling and guiding tourists to protect the environment, conserve nature and wildlife.

The brochure are published in Vietnamese, English and Chinese, with finalcial support from The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ).

PanNature is willing to share original designs for travel agencies and tour companies to spread the message.

This would have reduced the reserve area from 12,500 to 1,230 hectares (nearly 31,000 to just over 3,000 acres) to open up space for a proposed residential, resort and golf course complex called the Con Vanh Ecological Urban Area.
