Carrying capacity - it's time to let it go
by Simon McArthur
"Carrying capacity is appealing for its simplicity, but this is the very reason why it is fundamentally flawed when applied to human beings. Carrying capacity assumes all other variables are removed, and that both the environment and people do not change."
>> http://www.planeta.com/planeta/05/0508cc.html
AUTHOR -- Simon McArthur works as Product Development Manager for EcoPoint Management, an ecotourism company based in Australia. His current focus is the adaptive reuse of Sydney's historic Quarantine Station.

Experts cite forestry threat to ecotourism - Michelle Paine/Mercury
http://www.themercury.news.com.au
November 29, 2005
| Quote: | FORESTRY was a black mark against Tasmania's world-class tourism industry, an ecotourism conference was told yesterday. The findings of a team from the annual National Geographic stewardship survey were outlined to 250 delegates at the week-long Ecotourism Australia conference in Hobart.
Jonathon Tourtellot, director of National Geographic's Centre for Sustainable Destinations and geotourism editor of Traveler magazine, said the survey team was concerned about elements of Tasmania's forestry practices. |

NEWS -- Branded content for local tourism - The Australian
http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,20867,20074067-7582,00.html
| Quote: | | Tourism Australia is focused on changing attitudes to local holidays and increasing the 10.25 per cent of budgets households spend on domestic travel. That figure has fallen from 12.5per cent in 1998 because Australians are holidaying overseas or stockpiling their leave. |

48 Hours: Adelaide - Mary Beth LaRue/National Geographic Traveler
http://www.nationalgeographic.com/traveler/features/48hours_adelaide0611/adelaide.html
| Quote: | South Australia's seaside capital boasts a cosmopolitan center surrounded by serene parkland.
Once known as the "City of Churches," this coastal capital city is now the home of over one million Australians drawn to the city's premier art scene, lush parkland, and charming Victorian architecture. In the November/December issue of National Geographic Traveler, writer Roff Smith explores the city "down under." |
