Ecotravel News described as "value-added leader" resource

As narcissistic as Ecotravel News is, somehow we are always happy and surprised to know that there are people who actually read the site. So we were pleased to find that Ecotravel News has been recommended by the Go Green travel wiki administrator Anne McDonough aka Annemcd as one of six "reliable, value-added leaders in the field" of green-travel resources. We are lumped together with such noted organizations as Lonely Planet and Carbon Fund!

In a previous post we noted the review of Ecotravel News by Ms. McDonough, and the inclusion in this list of green travel resources is another happy event:

"Several of the [green-travel] resources are among those that my former newsroom [Washington Post] colleagues and I have recommended to the general public in order to address a few of the major issues facing those who travel, including carbon off-set, myths of the "eco-travel" trend and endangered destinations. All of the resources offer concrete steps for the common traveler to take in order to decrease their domestic and international environmental impact, whether through tips and suggestions or by highlighting how these issues are addressed in the press.

There are numerous other resources that would warrant inclusion in this list; I chose organizations that are reliable, value-added leaders in the field. The first resource, for example, sends a higher percentage of every dollar donated right to supporting carbon-offset projects, then doother [sic] like organizations. I feel that each resource is either the first, the best or the most vocal in its field."

We nominate ourselves as the "most vocal."
