Lesson 2. Earth’s Bounty eco tourism management
Earth's bounty refers to the abundance and diversity of natural resources, including plants, animals, minerals, water, and air, that sustain life on the planet.
It encompasses the intricate web of ecosystems and biodiversity that support ecological balance and provide essential goods and services to humanity.
The social and cultural importance of nature and natural resources in various societies and civilizations is included in the concept of Earth's bounty.
Cultural and Sociological Perspective: It encompasses customs, knowledge systems, cultural beliefs, and behaviors pertaining to food, agriculture, land use, and environmental preservation.
Biodiversity
The term biodiversity (from “biological diversity”) refers to the variety of life on Earth at all its levels, from genes to ecosystems, and can encompass the evolutionary, ecological, and cultural processes that sustain life.
At the Center for Biodiversity and Conservation, we include humans and human cultural diversity as a part of biodiversity.
Biocultural- the dynamic, continually evolving and interconnected nature of people and place, and the notion that social and biological dimensions are interrelated.

Genesis:creation
1 In the beginning God created heaven and earth.
2 Now the earth was a formless void, there was darkness over the deep, with a divine wind sweeping over the waters.
3 God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light.
4 God saw that light was good, and God divided light from darkness.
5 God called light 'day', and darkness he called 'night'. Evening came and morning came: the first day.
6 God said, 'Let there be a vault through the middle of the waters to divide the waters in two.' And so it was.
7 God made the vault, and it divided the waters under the vault from the waters above the vault.
8 God called the vault 'heaven'. Evening came and morning came: the second day.

This idea is promoted by ecotourism, which encourages visitors to respect and protect wildlife, natural habitats, and regional cultures.
Appreciation for Nature's Beauty: Genesis portrays the world as a masterpiece of God's creation, emphasizing its beauty and diversity.

Science and Faith - The Anthropic Principle: Humanity at the centre of the un...Gospel Conversations
In this second talk of the Science and Faith series Ron Winestock moves on to the topic of cosmology - ie what is the origin of the universe. This is mind boggling stuff and dwarfs the more conventional 'evolution' debates. He explains the anthropic principle that is fast emerging among scientists and which is ironically putting this little old earth back at the centre of attention. He describes the earth as the ark of humanity - a wonder of life in the midst of a barren universe. He contrasts the scientific view of cosmology with the Jewish view. Listen for some of the great discussion here - particularly as we develop the metaphor of the car to explain all of this.
In this first talk in the Science and Faith series Ron Winestock confronts the question, "How well does Genesis 1 fit in with the new science?" Most people wonder whether Genesis fits with evolution, but Ron takes a far broader view, and compares the implications of Genesis with cosmology - the theory of relativity and the origins of the universe. He concludes that Genesis is surprisingly modern, although it does not try to be a science text book. Then he compares the whole secular and Greek view of reality with its great rival the Jewish tradition - a topic he will develop in his next talk.

7. Reservation. Hotel Front office departmentMylaCambri
What is a Reservation?
It is a process of booking rooms before the arrival of the guest in order to ensure their availability at the time, the guests check in.
It involves matching a guest’s precise request for a room at a price with room availability, recording such requests and confirming the reservation.
Reservation is the nerve center for room revenues and profitability.
The reservation agent could advise the Sales Department when room occupancies were likely to be low during a week, month or year.
They know the pattern of guest flow and play a more proactive role than just as booking clerks.
Hotel managements also realized that the reservation agent went a long way in promoting the image of the property and supported their efforts in being efficient with better automation.
. Reservation also initiates the records that will later be used by other front desk colleagues and other departments.
The reservation acts as the guest profile folder for everyone and doubles as a registration form as well.
The information also upgrades various information lists and reports in the system.
Allowances: Daily fixed cash paid-outs to airline crews as negotiated with the airlines and recovered from them at a later date.
Amendments: Changes made of records concerning his stay.
Cancellation: A confirmed booking that has been withdrawn by the guest.
Confirmation: A room reservation that has been continued in writing by a guest.
Guaranteed Booking: A room booking that is confirmed in writing by a guest.

A famous Chinese restaurant in the metro is known for its dim sum and noodles. This restaurant was built in the 1950s and it is still operated by the same family, still utilizing the same ingredients. Upon eating. a person can see the steam equipment where there are fresh buns in the dining room. The entryway has no doors, but a curtain made of beads serves as its opening. The scent of eggs and oil cooked together emanates within the restaurant's premises. That is why when dining. a person can get a rustic feeling while eating the sumptuous dim sum.
Do you think the atmosphere of the dining room affects the dining experience of the guest here?
The service escape is the actual, physical environment where the act of service is performed, delivered, and consumed. It is very important because it is the area where the service team and the guest interact with each other.

9. Genesis 1:1-31
1 In the beginning God created heaven and earth.
2 Now the earth was a formless void, there was darkness over the deep, with a
divine wind sweeping over the waters.
3 God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light.
4 God saw that light was good, and God divided light from darkness.
5 God called light 'day', and darkness he called 'night'. Evening came and
morning came: the first day.
6 God said, 'Let there be a vault through the middle of the waters to divide the
waters in two.' And so it was.
7 God made the vault, and it divided the waters under the vault from the waters
above the vault.
8 God called the vault 'heaven'. Evening came and morning came: the second
day.
10. Genesis……….
.
9 God said, 'Let the waters under heaven come together into a single mass, and let dry land appear.'
And so it was.
10 God called the dry land 'earth' and the mass of waters 'seas', and God saw that it was good.
11 God said, 'Let the earth produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants, and fruit trees on earth, bearing
fruit with their seed inside, each corresponding to its own species.' And so it was.
12 The earth produced vegetation: the various kinds of seed-bearing plants and the fruit trees with
seed inside, each corresponding to its own species. God saw that it was good.
13 Evening came and morning came: the third day.
14 God said, 'Let there be lights in the vault of heaven to divide day from night, and let them
indicate festivals, days and years.
15 Let them be lights in the vault of heaven to shine on the earth.' And so it was.
16 God made the two great lights: the greater light to govern the day, the smaller light to govern the
night, and the stars.
11. 17 God set them in the vault of heaven to shine on the earth,
18 to govern the day and the night and to divide light from
darkness. God saw that it was good.
19 Evening came and morning came: the fourth day.
20 God said, 'Let the waters be alive with a swarm of aliving
creatures, and let birds wing their way above the earth across the
vault of heaven.' And so it was.
21 God created great sea-monsters and all the creatures that glide
and teem in the waters in their own species, and winged birds in
their own species. God saw that it was good.
22 God blessed them, saying, 'Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the waters
of the seas; and let the birds multiply on land.'
23 Evening came and morning came: the fifth day.
Genesis………..
12. 24 God said, 'Let the earth produce every kind of living creature in its own species:
cattle, creeping things and wild animals of all kinds.' And so it was.
25 God made wild animals in their own species, and cattle in theirs, and every
creature that crawls along the earth in its own species. God saw that it was good.
26 God said, 'Let us make man in our own image, in the likeness of ourselves, and
let them be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven, the cattle, all the wild
animals and all the creatures that creep along the ground.'
27 God created man in the image of himself, in the image of God he created him,
male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them, saying to them, 'Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and subdue
it. Be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven and all the living creatures
that move on earth.'
29 God also said, 'Look, to you I give all the seed-bearing plants everywhere on the
surface of the earth, and all the trees with seed-bearing fruit; this will be your food.
30 And to all the wild animals, all the birds of heaven and all the living creatures that
creep along the ground, I give all the foliage of the plants as their food.' And so it
was.
31 God saw all he had made, and indeed it was very good. Evening came and
morning came: the sixth day.
Genesis………..
13. • Genesis 1:1-31 is the opening chapter of the Bible,
describing the creation of the world by God in six
days. Here's a summary:
1. Day 1: God creates light and separates it from
darkness. He calls the light "day" and the darkness
"night."
2. Day 2: God creates the sky, separating the waters
below from the waters above, establishing an
expanse between them.
3. Day 3: God gathers the waters below to form seas,
creating dry land, and causing vegetation to sprout
on the earth, including plants, trees, and vegetation.
4. Day 4: God creates the sun, moon, and stars to
govern the day and night, and to mark seasons,
days, and years.
5. Day 5: God fills the seas with living creatures and
birds to fill the sky.
6. Day 6: God creates land animals, including livestock,
creatures that move along the ground, and wild
animals. Then, God creates humanity, male and
female, in his own image, giving them dominion over
the earth and all its creatures.
7. Conclusion: God sees all that he has made and
declares it to be very good.
14. Group Activity
•Share and reflect on the
passage from Genesis 1:1-
31 pertaining to the earth’s
bounty and in relations to
ecotourism.
•A representative will discuss
the summary of each
group’s reflection.
15. Genesis in Relations to
Ecotourism
Stewardship of Creation:
According to Genesis, God
gives humans authority over
the planet and all of its
inhabitants. This may be seen
as a request for careful
environmental stewardship.
This idea is promoted by
ecotourism, which encourages
visitors to respect and protect
wildlife, natural habitats, and
regional cultures.
16. Genesis in Relations to
Ecotourism
Appreciation for Nature's Beauty:
Genesis portrays the world as a
masterpiece of God's creation,
emphasizing its beauty and diversity.
Similarly, ecotourism encourages travelers
to appreciate the natural beauty of
destinations they visit, fostering a deeper
connection with the environment and a
desire to conserve it for future
generations. Genesis emphasizes the
diversity and beauty of nature, showing it
as a masterwork of God's creation. Similar
to this, ecotourism promotes a greater
appreciation for the natural beauty of
places visited by visitors, leading to a
stronger bond with the environment and a
desire to protect it for coming generations.
17. Sustainability: The Genesis narrative
underscores the importance of
sustainability by depicting the orderly
creation of the world over six days.
Ecotourism aligns with this concept by
promoting sustainable practices that
minimize negative impacts on the
environment and support the long-term
well-being of ecosystems, wildlife, and local
communities.
18. Biodiversity Conservation: God's creation
in Genesis includes a wide array of plants,
animals, and ecosystems. Ecotourism
encourages travelers to explore and learn
about diverse ecosystems and wildlife while
supporting conservation efforts aimed at
protecting biodiversity hotspots and
endangered species.
19. Cultural Respect and Engagement:
Genesis emphasizes the creation of
humanity in God's image, highlighting the
intrinsic value of every individual.
Ecotourism similarly emphasizes respect
for local cultures and communities,
fostering meaningful interactions between
travelers and residents while supporting
initiatives that preserve traditional
knowledge and practices.
20. Some things you can see and
experience on Earth through
ecotourism:
•National Parks and Wildlife
Reserves:
Examples include the Amazon
Rainforest in South America,
Yellowstone National Park in the
United States, and Serengeti National
Park in Tanzania.
21. Some things you can see…………..
•Coral Reefs and Marine Sanctuaries:
Snorkeling and diving in coral reefs provide
glimpses of vibrant underwater ecosystems
teeming with marine life.
•Destinations such as the Great Barrier Reef
in Australia, Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park
in the Philippines, and the Galápagos
Islands in Ecuador are renowned for their
biodiversity.
22. Some things you can see…………..
Mountain Landscapes: Trekking and hiking
in mountainous regions offer opportunities to
appreciate alpine ecosystems and
breathtaking vistas. Popular destinations
include the Himalayas in Asia, the Rocky
Mountains in North America, and the Andes in
South America.
23. Some things you can see…………..
Rainforests and Biodiversity Hotspots:
Exploring tropical rainforests allows travelers
to encounter unique flora and fauna found
nowhere else on Earth.
Examples include the rainforests of Borneo,
the Congo Basin in Africa, and Costa Rica's
Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve.
24. Some things you can see…………..
Safari Adventures: Safari tours in savannas
and grasslands provide close encounters with
iconic wildlife species such as lions,
elephants, giraffes, and rhinoceroses.
Destinations like the Maasai Mara in Kenya,
Kruger National Park in South Africa, and
Ranthambore National Park in India offer
memorable wildlife viewing experiences.
25. Some things you can see…………..
Cultural Experiences: Ecotourism often includes
interactions with indigenous communities and
learning about their traditional knowledge and
sustainable practices.
Visitors can participate in cultural exchanges,
traditional ceremonies, and artisanal crafts
workshops in places like the Amazon Basin, the
Maasai Mara, and the Arctic regions.
26. Some things you can see…………..
Volunteer Opportunities: Many ecotourism
programs offer opportunities for travelers to
contribute to conservation efforts through
volunteer work. This may involve habitat
restoration, wildlife monitoring, or community-
based conservation projects in various
locations worldwide.
27. Some things you can see…………..
Educational Programs: Ecotourism initiatives often incorporate
educational components, such as guided nature walks,
birdwatching tours, and lectures by local experts. These
experiences help raise awareness about environmental issues
and promote appreciation for nature conservation.
28. Key strategies for preserving
and conserving the
environment:
• Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
• Conserve Water

29.
30. Rationale for Tourism
The development of ecotourism is supported
by both supply and demand considerations.
On the supply side, many places possess
significant natural and cultural assets, such
as unique landscapes, and a variety of
ecosystems. abundant flora and fauna, and
diverse culture and heritage (Kim, Kang,
&Sukmayajaya, 2013).
31. Philippines has a megadiversity
hotspot with more than several
hundred species of birds, mammals,
reptiles, and amphibians as well as a
wide diversity of native trees,
plants, and flowers, 67% of which
are unique to the country. The
country also sits on the coral
triangle where many species of
marine life originate.
32. • Cordillera Rice
Terraces
• Puerto Princesa
• Underground
River
• Marsh
• Mayon Volcano
• Bohol for the
tarsiers
• Donsol for the
whale sharks
• Olango Islands
for the migratory
birds.
33. Tourism and
recreational
activities in
protected areas
around the world
attract some 8
billion visitors,
with a combined
direct spending of
USD 600 billion per
year (Badore,
2015).
It is also indicated
in the same study
that this income is
six times the
amount spent
yearly in protecting
and managing such
areas proving that
ecotourism can
generate more
than enough
revenue to support
nature
conservation.
In 2007 the UN
World Tourism
Organization
estimated that
ecotourism
presented 7% of
total global
tourism demand.
Applying that
figure to 2014
