    Before It's Too Late

    Tune in for the last official episode of the Eco-Tofletism podcast! In this episode, I'll be continuing with giving out solutions, but this time focusing on how can the region provide awareness to tourists about protecting the environment when they visit. It is important to include tourists themselves in creating environmental solutions since my project talks on tourism impacts on the environment. Enjoy this last episode!

    The Law-Breaking Environment

    I promise, this is the last pun title I'm going to make. I'll be starting to address solutions to environmental problems and impacts of the Clayoquot Sound Biosphere Region, introducing various plans, policies, regulations and by-laws that are enacted in the region. There are also viewpoints of the mayors of Tofino and Ucluelet about their region's policies.  enjoy!

    Strategic Equilibrium

    Yes, I know. The title sounds very confusing. Tune in to understand why I called it "Strategic Equilibrium"! This episode acts more like a concept-based chapter, where I'll be explaining what I learnt from achieving the balance between economic development/sustainability and environmental preservation. Since the shift towards tourism industry is a form of economic development in the Clayoquot Sound Biosphere Region, balancing this and environmental protection is key since tourism causes numerous impacts to the environment.

    There's only carbon emissions and waste/garbage in the environmental aspect? No way... In this episode, I'll be listing out other environmental impacts that might be created or affected by the tourism industry aside from carbon emissions and waste. There'll be more interview recording reveals for this episode, so tune in to listen to some interviews! I'll also be explaining some impacts which I think are more important. Enjoy!

    Be the Change you wish to C

    Sorry guys it's a pun title again... but this time I spiced things up: Chemistry puns! In this episode, I will be explaining why carbon emissions are so crucial to discuss about in the Clayoquot Sound Biosphere Region and increased tourism impacts towards it.  I will also be introducing a special link towards waste and carbon emissions, where by reducing waste using a specific method, more carbon emissions are generated. Enjoy!
