Download or read book Planificaci n y gesti n sostenible del turismo written by Jesús Rivas García and published by Septem Ediciones. This book was released on with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planificación y gestión sostenible del turismo es una obra en la que los autores, conocidos expertos y divulgadores en el campo de la Economía Ambiental y el Turismo, tratan de ofrecer esa perspectiva -bidimensional- sobre la actividad turística y ayudar a comprender no sólo los mecanismo tanto de la planificación como de la gestión sostenible, sino también los riesgos de un desarrollo indiscriminado fundado en un monocultivo mal regulado y peor controlado. A todo eso hay que añadir que el crecimiento de la industria turística está provocando que tanto los destinos tradicionales como los nuevos destinos turísticos padezcan una presión creciente sobre sus recursos naturales, culturales así como sobre su entorno social y económico. Es la sensibilidad y conciencia social en torno a los problemas ambientales lo que está propiciando la aplicación de criterios de sostenibilidad en los procesos de planificación turística. Esta obra es fruto de ese creciente interés y, por qué no decirlo, de esa necesidad ineludible de ver la actividad económica como un medio y no como un fin.

Download or read book The Challenge of Tourism Carrying Capacity Assessment written by Harry Coccossis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planning and management for tourism growth is becoming essential in the context of sustainable development. Particularly so since many tourist destinations are facing severe pressures from tourist flows and activities. Such pressures are evidenced in terms of dysfunctions (congestion, environmental degradation, etc) which ultimately affect the attraction and competitiveness of tourism destinations. The development of tourism should be considered in accordance with sustainability principles. In this context respecting the capacity of the local system to sustain growth becomes a key challenge. This book examines the use of various tools to define, measure and evaluate tourism carrying capacity (TCC) - a tool aiming to impose limits for entering certain tourist destinations or using certain activities. Drawing on case studies from France, Spain, Italy, Greece, the UK, the Netherlands, Ireland, Belgium, Austria, Germany and Finland, it presents practical experiences of implementing TCC in various tourist destinations (i.e. historic towns, coastal zones, islands, etc). It draws conclusions regarding the measurement and implementation of TCC assessment and provides further guidelines towards a comprehensive methodological framework for assessing tourism sustainability in the future.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.
