In this episode of Brains Byte Back, we visit a pressing issue: over-tourism and its impact on our planet. From the wildfires devastating Canada’s forests to the historic and deadly flooding in Valencia, the consequences of global warming are undeniable. And tourism, while a vital economic driver, often amplifies these challenges—putting immense pressure on fragile ecosystems, local resources, and cultural landmarks.
To help us navigate these complexities, we’re joined by Aradhana Khowala, an expert in regenerative travel and sustainable tourism. The CEO and founder of Aptamind Partners brings unparalleled insights into how the tourism industry, often seen as a contributor to environmental strain, can instead be leveraged as a force for good.
Together, we explore innovative approaches to address over-tourism.
So, whether you’re a globetrotter, an environmental advocate, or simply curious about how technology and creativity can shape the future of travel, this episode is for you.
