Putting the fun in Fundy : possibilities and pitfalls of ecotourism / [written and produced by J.A. Percy].: En13-8/21-2002E-PDF
"Ecotourism has a seemingly prosperous future in the Bay of Fundy, if its expansion is carefully planned and efforts are made to avoid or reduce any harm to the environment and wildlife. An ongoing dialogue and continuing cooperation among all parties involved is needed to reduce the impacts of some of the other activities that are largely incompatible with ecotourism. Some tourism interests and others are suggesting that a United Nations Environmental, Scientific and Educational Organization (UNESCO) designated Biosphere Reserve in the upper Bay of Fundy region would attract many more ecotourists to the area. Proponents of the plan also argue that such a locally-managed initiative, aimed at fostering environmentally sustainable communities, might encourage different interest groups to work creatively together to resolve conflicts associated with development and land use."--p. 8.
