"While the global tourism industry has made great strides towards sustainability in recent years, achieving sustainable tourism is a continuous process," Lonely Planet says. "This process is reflected in our book. When we asked travel writers from around the globe to tell us about their favourite sustainable travel accommodation and experiences, their top picks covered the spectrum of sustainability. Some options had sustainability at heart from conception, while others have made a concerted effort to improve. What unites them, is a commitment to enacting positive change."

"The sustainable escapes featured in our book," Lonely Planet continues, "prove that sustainable tourism is possible anywhere, and can take many forms, from high-end private island hideaways in Indonesia to intrepid coastal clean-up expeditions in Australia, and from remastered heritage hotels in Monaco to innovative community tourism projects in Cuba."
