Previous studies have considered environmental amenities as one of the determinants of tourism destination choice. The central hypothesis of this paper is that the destination’s biodiversity profile can be considered as a key component of environmental amenities. The main objective of this study is to propose a different perspective on this topic, considering the role of biodiversity on tourists’ choice of destination and duration of stay. Domestic Irish tourist flows have been chosen as a case study. The first step of the analysis required the construction of biodiversity indicators suitable for developing a biodiversity profile of each Irish county. Subsequently, a model was developed so as to explain the total number of nights spent in any location as a function of a set of explanatory variables including information about the socio-demographic characteristics of respondents, biodiversity and the landscape profile of the county of destination and features of the trip. Results show that most of the biodiversity and landscape indicators included in the analysis turn out to be statistically significant in determining tourists’ choices regarding the duration of their trip. As a result, policies pursuing biodiversity conservation appear to have a positive impact on the revenue of regional tourism.","PeriodicalId":314145,"journal":{"name":"SRPN: Restoration & Conservation (Topic)","volume":"109 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124080410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In light of Greece’s less than compliant State practice toward fishery management and conservation, this paper explores whether co-managed Fishery Protected Areas (FPAs) are an effective method of increasing the sustainability of Aegean/Mediterranean Sea fishing. This paper presents a broad-brush view of the close relationship Greece has had with the sea in the Aegean/Mediterranean region from ancient to current times. Juxtaposed is Greece’s modern lack of national policy priority for sustainable fishery management and conservation as illustrated through specific examples and effects of illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing around the artisanal fishing villages of Fourni Island (Fournoi) and Ormos (Samos Island) in the Eastern Aegean. Also discussed is the European Union’s role in the fisheries governing scheme. Field research gathered on Fourni Island by the author and a research team from the Greek non-governmental organization, Archipelagos Institute of Marine Conservation serves as the foundation for the paper’s message. In contrast to examples of Greece’s past performance in marine conservation, the paper culminates in an in-depth analysis of the components necessary for successful implementation and functioning of local co-managed FPAs. The Fourni Island artisanal fishing community is currently the focus of a pilot project organizing it as the first co-managed FPA in Greece. The author served as a team member of this pilot project.","PeriodicalId":314145,"journal":{"name":"SRPN: Restoration & Conservation (Topic)","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124291465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The evidence and consequences for the forests, economy and society of Guyana’s large-scale and long-term illegal logging and log trading are presented and assessed. I show how regulatory capture is manifest in the ways in which the log export policy from 2009 served the interests of the dominant Asian log exporters and the budget of the Guyana Forestry Commission while being fiscally ineffective. I show the points at which the Government of Guyana failed to use regulation and fiscal measures to make the implementation of national policies for in-country timber processing commercially feasible. I document the faltering steps taken to implement one of the conditions in the Guyana-Norway Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), signed in November 2009, which is ‘evidence of Guyana entering a formal dialogue with the European Union with the intent of joining its Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) processes towards a Voluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA)’. One of the key elements of a VPA is a legality verification system (LVS), to provide assurance that timber imported into the EU from the producer country shall have been produced at least legally if not sustainably.","PeriodicalId":314145,"journal":{"name":"SRPN: Restoration & Conservation (Topic)","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132624114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
