Abstract:
Community-based ecotourism in Yasuní National Park is presented as a tool for sustainable development and environmental preservation in one of the most biodiverse areas of the world. This study analyzes the perception of local stakeholders and visitors on the impact of community-based ecotourism. To achieve this objective, a Delphi methodology was applied to gather opinions and build consensus among experts on the impact of community-based ecotourism in Yasuní National Park, using two research techniques: an interview with a focus group of 15 people from the community and a survey of 90 touris

Abstract:
In Ecuador, following the late 2000’s commodity boom, a populist government invested increased oil revenues into social spending, reducing inequality, and gaining a rare period of political stability. The Yasuní National Park has been the focal point of this dynamic since 2006 when the government endorsed a ground-breaking plan to protect the park called the Yasuni ITT initiative. The initiative’s demise in 2013 raises the question: what explains the government’s initial support of, and then rejection of the ITT initiative? Upon combining the theories of extractive imperative and limited acces

Abstract:
This article explores the saga of the campaign to save the Ishpingo-Tambococha-Tiputini (ITT) block of the Yasuní National Park in Ecuador's Western Amazon, a story of the complex transnational networks and global governance mechanisms that have emerged to create post-Kyoto solutions for the planet. Ecuador's Yasuní-ITT Initiative to keep nearly 900 million barrels of oil underground in exchange for global contributions for avoided emissions presents an alternative norm for global environmental governance in line with the indigenous concept of buen vivir, or the good life.

Abstract:
The Yasuní-ITT (Ishpingo-Tambococha-Tiputini) Initiative consisted of leaving the oil underground in a part of Yasuní National Park in the Ecuadorean Amazon, one of the most biodiverse regions in the world. The financial compensation was to be invested in renewable energy, protection of biodiversity, and conservation of 44 protected areas. This initiative proposed a change of imaginaries. One of its most important contributions was questioning the fundamental role of oil in our capitalist and productivist society.

Abstract:
In 2007, President Rafael Correa of Ecuador proposed the Yasuní ITT Initiative at the United Nations General Assembly in an effort to contribute to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions and the local preservation of biodiversity. The initiative proposed enacting an indefinite ban on oil exploration and extraction within the Ecuadorian Yasuní National Park so long as the developed world was willing to contribute to half the forgone costs of drilling. However, despite initial support, the Yasuní Initiative was unsuccessful, and due to a lack of financial support, Correa terminated the propos

Substantial hunting pressure and habitat destruction caused by oil extraction has critically endangered the Amazonian manatee in Ecuador. The current population status is unknown because an effective method to observe them in the wild has yet to be developed.

Spatial differences in probability of detection were quantified if manatees were observed. The level of chemical contamination was determined and compared spatially and

The Yasuni National Park (YNP) is a protected area in the Amazon region of Ecuador. The Park is one of the most biodiverse regions in the world and has received much attention due to the media exposure of the Yasuni-ITT Initiative. This Initiative proposed a moratorium on oil activities in the Ishpingo-Timbococha-Tiputini (ITT) blocks within the Park, in exchange for US$3.6 billion in compensation to be paid by the international community. The authors conduct a feasibility analysis of the Initiative to show that it was flawed from its inception, then develop a financial approach for a ‘New ITT

This chapter looks at the evolution of environmental ethics, tracing its development from the 1960s, when concerns over pollution first brought environmental issues into ethical discourse, to the emergence of comprehensive theoretical frameworks. Early environmental ethics sought to extend moral consideration beyond humans by employing various inclusion criteria, such as sentiency. However, these approaches often remained anthropocentric and faced significant criticism. In response, more expansive theories, such as deep ecology and ecofeminism, emerged, linking environmental concerns to broade
