25 Great Ecolodges

I was reading this article by David Hochman titled 25 Great Ecolodges. It gives a birds’ eye view of what he rates as the world’s 25 great ecolodges. Hochman says “One hotel's idea of ecotourism is another's ploy to cash in on conscience. Some eco-sensitive retreats ask guests to reuse towels and insist they've saved the world. Others can't seem to do enough to serve the three-tiered mission of responsible tourism: positive impact on the environment, on the local culture, and on the traveler.”

I enjoyed reading this informative piece. Only one lodge from India measures up, Green Hotel, near Mysore.
