Conde Nast Traveler Announces: The Green List: Our 11th Annual Tribute to Ecotourism's Finest
NEW YORK, Aug. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Conde Nast Traveler's annual search to identify ecotourism's creme de la creme combs every corner of the earth, from the steamy Amazon, to the parched Moroccan desert to frigid Antarctica, tracking down candidates that exemplify earth-friendly travel.

This year's top scorer is the Jean-Michel Cousteau Fiji Islands Resort. The complete list (as seen below) is detailed in the issue.

Unlike many other travel publications, Conde Nast Traveler does not accept free travel and accommodations, and its correspondents, as far as possible, travel anonymously. The result is travel the way consumers experience it - good and bad, with reporting that is fair and honest. Conde Nast Traveler has won 6 National Magazine Awards and is still the only travel publication to have won this highest honor in magazine publishing. Conde Nast Traveler, the 2003 Zagat Survey Best Travel Magazine, has a circulation of over 750,000 and is published by the Conde Nast Publications, Inc.
