INTRODUCTION
Overview of the topic
Ecolodges can be defined as a kind of lodges which are different from all others by the
manner they are made or worked, or both of them. Ecolodges are situated in natural area or far
away from urban locations, it may be located in rural areas with less noise, traffic or any other
pollution. They are the enterprises that create benefits from connected to the local communities
while decreasing the environmental effect and giving the guests an improved natural
experiences. So, ecolodges are constructed for the people who want to live in between nature and
support nature. Generally they are small and have rooms not more than 50 and they have adopted
systems and technologies that provide protection to the surroundings and environment. These
lodges use different methods to save energy like technology of renewable energy (Knowles,
2019).
Sustainable development is a principle to meet human goals related to development by
protecting the ability of nature systems to give resources of nature and services related to
ecosystem on which mostly society and economy depend. The desired outcome is a stage of
society where resources are taken to constantly fulfil needs of human without disturbing the
stability of natural system. In a simpler words it is referred as creating developments that fulfil
the requirements of current situation without adjusting the capability of upcoming generations to
fulfil their self needs (Miller, 2017).
