Live from ITB Berlin - we've just announced the winners of the 2015 World Legacy Awards! The winners are all making waves in sustainable tourism. Here's number 3 of our 5 winners:

Above is an image from the winner of our Destination Leadership category. A Dutch outpost centered on tourism, Aruba punches above its weight. It is a member of the Carbon War Room, founded in 2009 by international leaders such as Richard Branson to fight climate change; its solar parking lot is the largest such installment in the Caribbean, with 14,400 panels (soon to double); 20 percent of its electricity comes from wind; and a waste-to-energy plant turns island trash into renewable power. Among Aruba’s smart-growth plans: electric car stations and the first trolley system powered by batteries using hydrogen fuel cells, which are fed by sun and wind energy. That the island boasts miles of sand fringed by blue waters is a bonus. “We’re a living laboratory for a sustainable society,” says Prime Minister Mike Eman, who spearheaded many of the initiatives. The example is catching on. Six Caribbean nations have said they’ll follow the “Aruba Model.” To see the rest of the winners, visit http://travel.nationalgeographic.com/travel/world-legacy-awards/
