The focus of this study is on the concepts of nature, environment and tourism. It especially seeks to takeinto account the meanings that our society assigns to its relationship with space and nature. The loveof-nature concept figures as a contradictory term since it stimulates a consumerist tourism of nature.The policies directed to tourism require more caution, and the author stresses the idea of shared responsibilityas an alternative that makes the different actors embrace environmental management. Throughthe discussion of these questions, we can contribute to the theoretical and methodological debate on environment, nature, and tourism.
