Abstract
The tourism industry has negative environmental consequences, overshadowing the regenerative bioeconomy. Climate change, land degradation, and resource depletion are significant challenges. Excessive use of non-biodegradable resources threatens the planet, requiring bio-based resources. It is critical to transition to and reuse bio-based resources. In this chapter, the regenerative bioeconomy has a wide-reaching impact on accomplishing SDG 6, 8, 11, and 12, with a focus on the circular economy's involvement in tourism logistics. Investments in talent development, digital technologies, and partnerships are needed to realise bioeconomy potential. Engaging local communities and implementing sustainable business practices can reduce energy use and environmental impact. Digital transformation requires technological advancements, foreign investment, and active participation from all stakeholders. This chapter tries to explain the complicated interplay between the regenerative bioeconomy, tourism logistics, and sustainable practises intertwining.
