Abstract:Through the UK's own Biodiversity Action Plans, specific habitats flora and fauna have been identified, which require protection or are in need of enhancement to maintain their existence. This article examines biodiversity in relation to tourism. Center Pares UK, have developed their own unique Forest Management Plans, corporate Biodiversity Action Targets and annual Ecological Monitoring studies. The latter have identified outstanding examples of flora and fauna of national and local interest, which have colonised Center Pares' sites after the construction phase. In this article, Center Pares clearly demonstrate that biodiversity can be achieved at a local level, which is where a significant impact can be made, against the global context of biodiversity.
