Colombia trades out fossil fuels for eco-tourism-based economy

Colombia is leaving behind fossil fuels and moving to a eco-tourism-based economy. The country is taking a step closer towards environmental protection and conservation. The credit goes to jaguars, capybaras, caimans, and other wild species in the country. Protected areas in the Casanare region of Colombia are fast shifting to promoting eco-tourism and further away from the fossil fuel industry.
