Ecotourism and Certification: Setting Standards in Practice

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The idea of `ecotourism` has taken off in recent years, but a crucial detail is often neglected: how do we know that an enterprise truly meets the goals and standards of ecotourism? Certification?the rating of lodges, resorts, tour operators, and other sectors of the tourism industry by independent auditors who verify environmental and social impacts?has emerged as the most promising answer. Ecotourism and Certification offers a valuable overview of ecotourism certification and lays out the basic challenges and strategies for establishing certification programs. The book begins by establishing baseline information on the tourism industry, situating ecotourism within the larger tourism industry, and tracing the history of certification. The second chapter explores the concepts underlying certification followed by a chapter that examines certification as a tool in other industries such as forestry and coffee production. The remainder of the book highlights case studies of the most… [detailed...]

Ecotourism and Sustainable Development, Second Edition: Who Owns Paradise?

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Around the world, ecotourism has been hailed as a panacea: a way to fund conservation and scientific research, protect fragile ecosystems, benefit communities, promote development in poor countries, instill environmental awareness and a social conscience n the travel industry, satisfy and educate discriminating tourists, and, some claim, foster world peace. Although “green” travel is being aggressively marketed as a “win-win” solution for the Third World, the environment, the tourist, and the travel indusry, the reality is far more complex, as Martha Honey reports in this extraordinarily enlightening book. Ecotourism and Sustainable Development, originally published in 1998, was among the first books on the subject. For years it has defined the debate on cotourism: Is it possible for developing nations to benefit economically from tourism while simultaneously helping to preserve pristine environments? This long-awaited second edition provides new answers to this vital question…. [detailed...]

Ecotourism and Sustainable Development: Who Owns Paradise?

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Ecotourism is defined as `responsible travel to natural areas which conserves the environment and improves the welfare of local people.` Many see it as a panacea for developing nations-a source of clean development that can bring wealth to rural communities while simultaneously helping to preserve pristine environments. But has the reality lived up to the promise? And is that even possible. In Ecotourism and Sustainable Development, Martha Honey presents an overview of the ecotourism industry and a first-hand account of ecotourism projects around the world. Based on interviews and visits to ecotourist hotspots in Latin America and Africa, she offers a vivid description and analysis of projects that meet the goals and standards of ecotourism as well as those that claim to be ecotourism but in reality fall short. She presents in-depth case studies of seven destinations (Galapagos, Costa Rica, Cuba, Zanzibar, Tanzania, Kenya, and South Africa) that serve to illustrate the real world… [detailed...]

Ecotourism: Principles and Practices (Cabi Tourism Texts)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Ecotourism is a useful concept, but not a very well defined one, it has been debated in theory and attempted in practice for nearly two decades. Its key goal is to reduce the net environmental impact of the tourism industry, via mechanisms including minimal impact management measures, education, community involvement, private conservation, contributions to public protected areas, expansion of ecotourism enterprises and mainstreaming of ecotourism principles. Focusing on fundamental ecotourism concepts, this broad-based textbook provides a basis for studies into environment-based tourism. It covers key topics such as the management, economics and potential environmental impacts both positive and negative of this popular and growing sector. Written for tourism students and an ideal resource for undergraduate courses, Ecotourism: Principles and Practices will also interest industry practitioners and researchers. [detailed...]

Conservation issues are now at the forefront of public opinion - Nature is calling us to its wilds and we are responding in droves.

Ecotoxicology of Antifouling Biocides

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Organotin compounds, used as antifouling biocides since 1960, are chemical compounds that act as endocrine disrupters. It is not known how organotin compounds cause hormone disturbance, however, and many questions remain about their effect on aquatic organisms. Studies on organotin compounds have recently evolved, with many new findings reported. Following a worldwide ban on organotin compounds in 2008, alternative compounds will mainly be used, with the potential for coastal areas to become contaminated, causing, among other effects, cholinesterase inhibition in aquatic organisms. Use of alternative compounds must be controlled to avoid such errors. These and other findings are described and concisely summarized in this book, providing a useful reference in countries where alternative biocides are being considered. Included are studies on the effects on marine organisms, making this book an excellent aid to experts in environmental chemistry, to government organizations, and to… [detailed...]

Ecoviolence

Publisher: —
Description: Ecoviolence explores links between environmental scarcities of key renewable resources-such as cropland, fresh water, and forests-and violent rebellions, insurgencies, and ethnic clashes in developing countries. Detailed contemporary studies of civil violence in Chiapas, Gaza, South Africa, Pakistan, and Rwanda show how environmental scarcity has played a limited to significant role in causing social instability in each of these contexts. Drawing upon theory and key findings from the case studies, the authors suggest that environmental scarcity will worsen in many poor countries in coming decades and will become an increasingly important cause of major civil violence.

Publisher: Le Livre de Poche
Description: Pendant plus de vingt ans, de 1824 a 1846, Balzac n`a pas cesse d`accompagner sa creation de textes theoriques et critiques: au plus pres de l`oeuvre, des prefaces, au plus intime, le chuchote de la correspondance et ce journal de la creation que constituent les `Lettres a madame Hanska`, au grand jour, les comptes rendus d`оeuvres contemporaines tels que etude celebre sur `La Chartreuse de Parme`, au sein des ceuvres memes, enfin, le commen-taire sur le roman et la litterature. Contre ceux qui pensent que le roman n`a pas de poe-tique, c`est en poeticien qu`il definit l`art du roman et ses lois esthetiques, avec une conscience aigue de son entree par effraction dans l`ordre des genres dominants. Ainsi se developpe une reflexion profonde - contribution majeure a une theorie romantique du roman - que cette anthologie presente dans la diversite des circonstances qui la virent naitre, dans la force de ses certitudes et dans la permanence de ses refus.

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Ecstasy, Creativity and Identity Amid Ironclad Chaos, by artist Azaria Mbatha explores what it is like to grow up black under South African apartheid reform. An autobiographical fiction, Mbatha’s book examines what happens when two cultures—black and white—finally join forces to help each other through art. With wit and insight, Mbatha shows how multiculturalism can be a solution rather than a problem. Ecstasy, Creativity and Identity Amid Ironclad Chaos is also the story of two very different families, the black Lendebeles and the white Kalagaans. Together, these two families grapple with changing mores about race and new ideas about creativity. Eventually, they start a feminist art club together, using artistic expression to make bold statements about man’s place in the world today. Gripping, funny, and moving, Ecstasy Creativity and Identity Amid Ironclad Chaos is a stunning look at art, apartheid, and the common goals of man. [detailed...]

Ecstatic in the Poison

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn his sixth book of poetry, Ecstatic in the Poison, National Book Award finalist Andrew Hudgins offers a host of delights. Long known as a composer of innovative, clear-sighted narratives and hard-driving, truth-telling lyrics, Hudgins now digs deep into the biographical and autobiographical, the lyric and dramatic, the comic and elegiac. Drawing on events of childhood and of later years, as well as the real and imagined lives of others, Hudgins brings to life a rich, comedic, and haunting variety of characters: among them a prankster who disassembles a Cadillac and rebuilds it in his attic, Russian soldiers on the verge of execution, frenzied inhabitants of Sodom, along with middle-class husbands, wives, and children. Cameo appearances by Alexander the Great and his horse Bucephalus, God strolling in the Garden of Eden, and Josef Stalin lead the reader through the epochs. In Hudgins`s adroit hands, a lake, and even a joke become personified. [detailed...]
