Book excerpt: Annotation. The global tourism industry continues a trend of sustained growth, moving more people and generating domestic and foreign revenues, often at the expense of the social and ecological integrity of destination regions. As a result, tourism policy makers have been forced to consider a variety of new approaches to ensure that the environment, local people, tourists, and business remain unaffected by the negative impacts of the industry.

Download or read book Rainforest Tourism, Conservation and Management written by Bruce Prideaux and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globally rainforests are under threat on numerous fronts, including clearing for agriculture, harvesting for timber and urban expansion. Yet they have a crucial role in biodiversity conservation, climate change mitigation and providing other ecosystem services. As the term is used in this book, rainforests include both temperate and tropical, although the emphasis is on tropical rainforests. Rainforests are also attractive tourist spaces and where they have been used as a tourism resource have generated significant income for local communities. However not all use of rainforests as a tourism resource has been sustainable. This book argues that sustainability must be the foundation on which tourism use of this complex but ultimately fragile ecosystem must be built upon. It provides a multi-disciplinary perspective, incorporating rainforest science, management and tourism issues. The book is organized into four sections commencing with Rainforest Ecology and Management followed by People and Rainforests, Opportunities for Rainforest Tourism Development and finally Threats to Rainforests. Each major rainforest region is covered, including the Amazon, Central America, Africa, Australia and south-east Asia, in the context of a specific issue. For example rainforests in Papua New Guinea are examined in the context of community-based ecotourism development, while the rainforests in Borneo are discussed in an examination of wildlife issues. Other issues covered in this manner include governance, empowerment issues for rainforest peoples and climate change.

Book excerpt: In recent decades, the fast rise of emerging economies, like the BRICS nations, has propelled the growth of tourism worldwide. Meanwhile, a plethora of nature destinations has been developed to meet the diverse needs of the new wave of demand from emerging economies and to entice existing tourists from advanced and rich economies. Nature Tourism augments the current literature on the benefits and pitfalls in recent developments of nature tourism, tracing the history in development, highlighting the ecological impacts and showcasing the current practices in nature tourism, along with discussions on specific tourist markets from holistic viewpoints embracing lessons learned from various destination nations and continents across the globe. A host of topics with global significance will be explored such as the effect of climate change on nature tourism, technological innovation in managing nature tourism, visitor management in nature tourism and market positioning in a highly competitive environment. These are reviewed in a wide range of countries from USA/Canada, South America, Scandinavian countries, the Swiss Alps, Middle-East countries, Africa, China and Australia/New Zealand. This book will offer significant insight into nature-based tourism and its future development. It will be of interest to upper-level students, researchers and academics in tourism, environmental studies, development and sustainability.

This book was released on 2022-07-18 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2022 in the subject Tourism - Miscellaneous, grade: 2,0, , language: English, abstract: This essay is about the fundamentals and strategies of nature based tourism and ecotourism. Ecotourism, which is a type of alternative tourism, is separated into two categories: "hard" and "soft" ecotourism. Hard ecotourism is characterized by a scientific interest in the environment, biodiversity as well as wildlife. Hard ecotourism is the most opulent type of ecotourism, frequently involving a lack of hotel accommodations or other amenities. Sleeping at an environmentally friendly campground is one illustration of hard ecotourism. General or "soft" ecotourism, which is similarly based on a fascination with nature, adopts a less intense approach. Hiking is prevalent, although it is regarded a recreational activity rather than a conduit for environmental research, as it would be in hard ecotourism. Ecotourism is not designed to have negative environmental implications, but given the lack of clarity about what constitutes sustainable practices, this could happen inadvertently. As a result, it is critical to explain those negative consequences, as well as the necessity of management strategies as a tool for reducing or even eliminating those consequences. Nature-based tourism is a broad word for tourist practices that require people interacting with the earth in ways that are distinct from humankind's usual activities. Regardless of the fact that pristine countryside is desirable, tourists often want modern conveniences and tailored items. There seems to be a conflict between desired and ideal levels of growth and development because it is incompatible with the fundamental vision of eco - as well as nature-based tourism.

Download or read book Nature-based Tourism in Peripheral Areas written by Colin Michael Hall and published by Channel View Publications. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nature-based Tourism in Peripheral Areas provides a comprehensive examination of this form of tourism development as it occurs within alpine, forest, sub-polar, island, coastal and marine environments. This book goes beyond much of the debate surrounding ecotourism and the impacts of tourism in vulnerable environments to place nature-based tourism in a wider regional context, particularly when for many peripheral regions tourism remains one of the key opportunities for economic development. Therefore, a central theme that is present throughout many of the chapters is the role that nature-based tourism can play as the catalyst for larger regional development of regions. The book will serve as essential reading to senior undergraduate and postgraduate students taking courses in tourism and related degrees where the major focus is on tourism that occurs within peripheral regions. It will also serve as a key reference to researchers and professionals interested in the role of tourism as a regional development tool.
