Abstract

This paper contains a synthesis of contributions presented by the author at the Regional Conference of the Americas that took place in Costa do Sauipe, Bahia, September 29-30, 2003, as well as critical remarks and recommendations. The subject matter has not reached a consensus until now, mainly due to the lack of participation of universities and investigative
centers in its discussion and formulation, therefore with emphasis always returning to preservation and environment issues. The question incorporated
in the title is inciting and serves as an encouragement for more daring works
and investigations. To guide the reader there is also a short synthesis of the
history of the environmental problem and its evolution until the present
attempts to build the concept of tourism and sustainable development.
