Dr. Anya Ermakova explains the usages of different vines for the preparation of ayahuasca and gives examples of consequences that have resulted from ayahuasca tourism. People are most familiar with scarcity of plant resources, but there have also been other consequences such as jaguar poaching. Are all the consequences of Ayahuasca tourism negative, or can there be positive aspects to it? By conducting more research to understand the scope of the problem, developing public policies and legislation in order to fight deforestation, and by providing sustainable infrastructure for ayahuasca harvesting and cultivation, ensuring living wages and employment for those that are devoted to those activities. The development of this infrastructure involves the collaboration of public agencies, ayahuasca groups, and Indigenous populations. It is also important to acknowledge the role that consumers from the Global North play in the export of ayahuasca plants, along with the growing demand for South American shamanism. The healing promises often associated with ayahuasca and the hype of this drink in the psychedelic renaissance are important issues to address when it comes to the sustainability of the associated plants. In conclusion, we need to approach the topic with integrity, honor, respect, and humility in order to ensure the continuing existence of these sacred plants and the natural ecosystems they are part of.
