Research on sustainability and sustainable tourism has thus far avoided evaluating how tourists actually understand these terms. Instead, scholars have focused on the supply side, presuming a common and precise understanding of sustainability and sustainable tourism among all tourists and stakeholders. This study shows that most consumers link sustainability only to environmental issues, and understand sustainability differently from sustainable tourism. It finds significant interpersonal and intercultural differences regarding consumers’ conceptualisations of sustainability. The results illustrate that empirical research methodology for conceptualising consumers’ sustainability understanding frequently is doubtful or weak. This research exposes tourists’ limited understanding of sustainability, and helps tackle widespread scepticism about the effectiveness of sustainable tourism, by creating better informed sustainable tourism marketing.

A urgência do tratamento das questões ambientais e da promoção de processos mais sustentáveis, assim como a crescente competitividade entre os destinos turísticos e os impactos negativos gerados pelo turismo exigem que todos os envolvidos na cadeia turística tomem consciência de sua corresponsabilidade na preservação ambiental e melhoria da qualidade de vida da população. A Educação Ambiental (EA) apresenta-se como uma grande aliada do turismo sustentável, ao promover a tomada de consciência por meio da vivência. Este artigo é um recorte da dissertação de mestrado do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Geografia da Universidade Federal de Uberlândia e tem como propósito discutir sobre a importância da Educação Ambiental para o desenvolvimento do Turismo Sustentável. Caracteriza-se como pesquisa exploratória sendo consultados para contextualização e abordagem da temática livros, artigos científicos, legislação e sites. O artigo se divide em quatro sessões em que serão discutidos temas como o Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Sustentabilidade, a relevância da Educação Ambiental como agente transformador e promotor do DS e a importância da EA para a promoção do Turismo Sustentável. Palavras-chave: Turismo Sustentável, Educação Ambiental, Desenvolvimento Sustentável, Sustentabilidade.AbstractThe urgency of addressing environmental issues and promoting more sustainable processes, as well as the increasing competitiveness between touristic destinations and the negative impacts generated by tourism, require all those involved in the tourism chain to become aware of their co-responsibility in environmental preservation and improvement of the populations' quality of life. Environmental Education (EE) presents itself as a great ally of sustainable tourism by promoting awareness through living. This article is a cut of the master's dissertation of the Postgraduate Program in Geography of the Federal University of Uberlândia and aims to discuss the importance of Environmental Education for the development of Sustainable Tourism. It is characterised as exploratory research being consulted for contextualization and approach of thematic books, scientific articles, legislation and sites.

Innovators of in vitro meat (IVM) are convinced that this approach is the solution for problems related to current meat production and consumption, especially regarding animal welfare and environmental issues. However, the production conditions have yet to be fully clarified and there is still a lack of ethical discourses and critical debates on IVM. In consequence, discussion about the ethical justifiability and desirability of IVM remains hypothetical and we have to question those promises. This paper addresses the complex ethical aspects associated with IVM and the questions of whether, and under what conditions, the production of IVM represents an ethically justifiable solution for existing problems, especially in view of animal welfare, the environment, and society. There are particular hopes regarding the benefits that IVM could bring to animal welfare and the environment, but there are also strong doubts about their ethical benefits.

Abstract. A retrospective suicide study revealed that the Forestry Commission car parks in the New Forest in southern England were a previously unrecognized magnet for nonlocal suicides, attracting as high a proportion of “visitors” (35/43 in 1993-97) as among suicides who jumped from the cliffs at the infamous Beachy Head (39/48 in 1993-97). Over 95% of the car park suicides died from car exhaust gas poisoning. A multiagency initiative aimed to reduce the number of suicides in the 140 New Forest car parks where restricting access was impossible, and environmental issues paramount. Signs displaying the Samaritans' national telephone number were erected in the 26 car parks in which 50% of the car park suicides had occurred. Numbers, location, and residence of all car park deaths were monitored for 3 years. Corresponding changes in other forest registration districts were also monitored. During the 3-year intervention period the number of car park suicides fell significantly from 10/year, 1988-1997, to 3.3/year. The average annual total number of suicides in the New Forest registration district also decreased. No significant changes were found in comparable forest districts. The number of suicides in the New Forest car parks remained low during the 2 years following the evaluation.
