Abstract

In fragile environments that are already seriously threatened, such as the city of Taranto and its Gulf, special attention and the involvement of all stakeholders is required (Selby and Morgan in Tour Manag 17(4): 287–294, 1996). In these destinations, tourist experiences and resources have the potential to become instruments to increase visitors’ environmental consciousness, increasing the awareness about the value of biodiversity and the importance of its conservation. Today Taranto is struggling to overcome the negative image associate with an Ilva steel plant by enhancing its natural resources. The Jonian Dolphin Conservation, an association that carries on activities of research and protection of the sea and cetaceans in the Gulf of Taranto, operates in these directions and represents an essential example of blue economy enterprise and a sustainable way to exploit sea resources. This paper aims to study how an environmentally sustainable activity can favour tourism development and urban repositing in a place affected by a negative image.

Offshore activities include the exploration of crude oil and natural gas deposits by drilling exploratory wells (exploration phase). Then start up the production phase with the drilling of production wells. These wells are used to extract the oil and/or natural gas (extraction phase). Within this process, air-gun is used. This is a technique of hydrocarbon exploration in the sea that employes a strong pulse of compressed air "shot" into the water and that sends shots to the seabed. The echo emitted from the subsoil provides information about the underground structures. An amendment to the M5S political party aims to ban the airgun technique, with penalties of up to 120,000 euros and the revocation of permits (Retrieved from: Il sole 24 Ore, 15 January 2019).
