Abstract

The positive feedback between biotic homogenization and its close relatives, cultural and culinary homogenization, is evident and favors the economic use of non-native species. The overvaluation of non-native species has not been thoroughly considered in conservation practices. There are few examples of a shifting strategy from producing exotic species to the productive use of native ones, and this change should be encouraged. However, several examples of sustainable use of native species exits. Here we call attention to more conscientious practices that gradually realign local needs with native natural resources. The revaluing of local diversity so that it is appreciated as in former times over a small number of globally used (non-native) species can be a key step in efforts to preserve native natural and cultural resources.
