| Summary, etc. | With the rise of geotourism, many important paleontological<br/>field sites are being conserved in a variety of ways. A genuine<br/>geo-tourism development strategy based on the local<br/>geology and palaeontology is the key to designing the fossil<br/>parks. The fossil forest is considered a non-renewable natural<br/>resource to be preserved not only for the admiration of<br/>future generations but also to impart knowledge on the past<br/>climate, past depositional environment of sediments, past<br/>geographical conditions, relative age determinations, and<br/>past ecology. From a geo-tourism promotion perspective,<br/>the fossil forests have exceptional heritage and scientific<br/>values, as admired by UNESCO with their recognition<br/>under the Global Geo-Park Network. However, the fossils<br/>are fragile and very sensitive, even to the processes of<br/>weathering, for which special care is mandatory while<br/>promoting geotourism in fossil parks. Geo-conservation is<br/>a management strategy for the protection of various geo-<br/>heritage sites with high scientific and tourism values. The<br/>aim of geo-conservation is the dynamic preservation and<br/>maintenance of various geo-heritage sites. With a focus on<br/>the protection of geosites, geotourism puts emphasis on<br/>the optimal utilisation and diffusion of knowledge about<br/>earth heritage resources. The knowledge of geosciences<br/>imparted through the educational approach of geo-tourism<br/>ultimately benefits the community and the protection of<br/>the environment at the national and local levels. In order<br/>to ensure the best possible protection, it is essential to<br/>involve the local communities in geo-conservation because<br/>authorities are unable to protect the sites directly due to<br/>various constraints. Geotourism yields economic benefit<br/>for the community by imparting education and raising<br/>awareness about geosites. |
