NZ Freedom Campers by Nikita

NZ Freedom Campers

Freedom campers in New Zealand have been causing our clean green image to disappear, our reputation has been demolished because of the issue freedom campers have caused by littering. But banning freedom campers would cause a huge impact on our economy.

Firstly, tourism in New Zealand is very common, but if we ban freedom camping, people will stop visiting New Zealand causing us to lose our money. One huge problem that is caused by freedom campers, is littering. They  drop their rubbish. If they placed several larger rubbish bins, this would decrease the amount of litter.

Secondly, I believe freedom campers shouldn’t be banned because we would lose money from the lack of freedom camping tourists in the economy. Freedom camping is popular with tourists so if we ban freedom camping we would lose money because tourism is common in New Zealand. Tourism encourages people to spend money for their family to go on adventures through freedom camping. People may not be spending money on accommodation but they are spending money on outdoor activities and entertainment whilst traveling through our country, our image encourages them to explore the nature throughout New Zealand causing them to pay more to our industries for gas, food and many more.

Thirdly, camping is a popular activity for both New Zealand residents and for some of the two million foreign tourists arriving every year. Camp sites of varying standards, generally in conjunction with other forms of accommodation, are offered by holiday park operators throughout New Zealand. The facilities at these campsites varies from those with only a basic toilet to those that have the full range of campground amenities.

In conclusion, my understanding leads me to believe that freedom campers should not be banned but they should have strict rules keeping them from destroying New Zealand’s reputation.
