The growth of this industry has been primarily profit oriented with little regard for environmental concerns. Such an approach is the common norm globally with very few exceptions. Unplanned tourism especially in the fragile Himalaya can therefore prove to be ecologically damaging. Tourism developmental activities are already causing environmental degradation in certain tourist areas of repute. Tourism related environmental concerns such as increasing solid waste air pollution over construction or lack of tourism resources in certain spots are becoming increasingly evident. Tourism can be the best suited industry for the Himalayan region if planned scientifically. It offers considerable opportunities for a prosperous hotel industry opening up job opportunities in urban as well as rural communities. The negative impacts of the industry can be mitigated by positive efforts like regulated infrastructure developments within the carrying capacity of the area ecotourism and decentralisation of tourism. The industry can therefore be sustainable if properly planned. A fundamental strategy has to be the development of new areas for tourism away from the present concentrations thus opening up opportunities for the locals and tourists in new areas and also minimising the problems of existing tourist spots. Tourism in Kullu Valley An Environmental Assessment contains data based information on tourism of special interest to students teachers researchers planners and administrators engaged in environmental impact assessment. It also has information about marketing business administration resource management and planning. This book will also be useful for tourists who are fascinated by the call of the Himalaya. 210 pp.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. India has a rich ethnic heritage with more than 400 distinct tribal groups inhabiting different regions of the country. These ethnic communities possess rich traditional knowledge on indigenous plants. Tribal knowledge is now recognized as an important resource that can be utilized for tribal development, health care and environmentalconservation. Therefore, it becomes a vital necessity for the documentation and preservation of this knowledge before such information is lost forever due to rapid acculturation of tribal communities. Ethnobotanical studies on Similipal reveal the availability of wild and cultivated plant species with potential for resource utilization. Tribals inhabiting Similipal possess specific knowledge about usage of plants unknown to the outside world. Their traditional knowledge about flora and fauna remains fundamental to their physical, spiritual and social well-being. The tribals are still dependent on traditional hunting, gathering, primitive farming for their livelihood. The book presents ethnobotanical spectrum of Similipal in the Mayurbhanj district of Odisha. Indigenous knowledge of 300 species of vascular plants, both wild and cultivated, have been collected, analysed, classified and documented. It is a comprehensive inventory of useful plants in Central India inhabited mainly by the Kharia tribes. This book provides not only as a reference material but also as a practical guide for folk healers, Vaidyas, Hakims, researchers, traditional healers and students working on medicinal plants. We have attempted to make the resource inventory a comprehensive one. We hope that the book will be adored by ethnobotanists, economic botanists, plant collectors, anthropologists, sociologists, policy makers and environmentalists.…
