These days lots of people prefer weekend getaways, so within 100 kms of every major city, there should be numerous places which can be developed as a trekking, camping, fishing, boating, village eco-tourism site etc. Each tourist should also be encourgaed to give something back to the spot(nature), like planting a tree, installing a dustbin etc. Matheran is a hillstation where public vehicles are not allowed beyond a certain point which can be followed at other places. Encourgae bicycles.

Apart from giving the basic facilities like good public toilets, clean roads without smoke spitting vehicles (using spurious fuel), good lodges and restaurants, facilities for car rentals with DIY and reasonable entry fees, ecosystem untouched is very important for tourism. In the wild, design trails with bicycle rentals, clean the rivers and create cosy and safe atmosphere on the banks, In the beaches create safe water sports. Brochures telling what and what not a tourist can do will make diff

Governments collects municipal taxes on the basis of area of construction. Water, Telephone, Electricity, etc dept collects on the basis of consumption. Similarly, there shall be a Environment Protection cess on the basis of non-echo friendly emissions from each house and the cess should be costlier. Simultaneously govt should promote utilization of renewable energy resources. Govt should give big concessions for producing the solar equips etc. This will help us to reach clean & green Bharat.

From last few years Himalayan region are a good tourist attraction, both national and international. We can start trekking competition , weekly trekking tours. This will attract more tourist. Opening of government cafe , where trekking tool and accessories can be rented. Opening of hill top resting place between treks are new thing which tourist will admire and will visit very often. Also some restriction on use of plastic bag, which affects d mountainous ecosystem.

If we want to see India green than we should think before cutting beautiful greenery and making the concrete places and buildings. We all should give some place in our house or near for plants and feel like them as our best friends as plants are the only one which give us oxygen and fresh air to breath. If we don't think seriously today we have to suffer tomorrow. If we grow infrastructure we should give the same importance to environment , concrete will not save our life in future. Grow trees..
