Humanity has maintained cultural connections with our environments for time immemorial. Plants and artisan crafts are a prime example, as craft purpose, skill, design, species used can vary greatly between communities the loss of critical plant result in access to practices.

Abstract Tourism plays a vital role in both economic development and depending on the scale, it can also aid environmental conservation. planning often considers culture-based nature-based tourism separately, failing to recognize synergies between them, with potential market locations as biocultural destinations.
