Situated in India's northernmost region, Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) is known for its breathtaking landscapes. Often called the "mini-Switzerland" of India, it shares remarkable similarities with Switzerland. Both J&K and Switzerland are celebrated for their natural beauty and diverse cultures, reflecting the rich tapestry of human heritage. Tourism is a vital economic force for both regions. Comparing their experiences sheds light on tourism's transformative power. J&K faces unique challenges, including geopolitical and environmental issues. By comparing these with Switzerland's experiences, we can explore potential solutions. As the world embraces sustainable tourism, this comparison offers insights into preserving these regions while promoting responsible travel. In this research, we explore various aspects of J&K and Switzerland, understanding why J&K is recognized as the "mini-Switzerland" of India and how it can thrive as a unique destination.

This paper analyses how seeing humans as the earth’s primary inhabitant has led to policies and practices that prioritize short-term economic gains over long-term ecological sustainability. Recognizing our role within a broader ecological system is key to developing strategies that respect the Earth's carrying capacity. Johan Rockström’s concept of 'planetary boundaries' outlines nine thresholds, like climate change and biodiversity loss, that shouldn't be crossed to maintain a 'safe space for humanity’.
