Some hotels, like the 8 we've include in this gallery, are taking the phrase "going green" to a five-star level. Some of these establishments were built entirely from sustainable materials, some use hydroelectric power to conserve water and other use solar energy to power their buildings.

Just because they’re low on economic cost doesn’t mean they’re low on luxury.

Developing a Sustainable Palate: Changing Food Consumption Habits for the Greater Good

The world population's consumption habits are taking a toll on the planet as people constantly demand from already dwindling natural resources to produce everything, including sustenance. Though one cannot completely do away with food, one can lessen the impact on the environment through more eco-friendly and sustainable food consumption. It might sound difficult at the onset, but there are little ways individuals can cook and eat more sustainably.

The environmentalist organization Worldwide Fund (WWF) recommends reducing meat and dairy consumption because animal farming is a leading contributor to greenhouse gasses. While it doesn't necessarily mean going completely vegetarian unless one wants to, reducing the amount one eats is a great start.

Being more conscientious about food waste is also key. Tons of food are thrown out – sometimes uneaten, daily and while the motherly admonition about starving children should remind people to be less wasteful, it's also worth thinking about how the carbon footprint the whole production process involved only to see food thrown out. Buying only what one can consume is a good rule of thumb, and if there are any leftovers, those can be used for compost for a home vegetable garden or fruit orchard. Raising chickens for meat and eggs can also grow the compost pile.

Apart from growing one's own food, another way to be more responsible when buying food is to go for sustainably-raised seafood from aquaculture farms, instead of seafood caught in the wild, choose local, in-season items whenever possible, and avoid processed foods that use up more resources to manufacture.

Those who can afford it can also opt for organic food, as the means to grow these produce and raise this type of livestock have reduced negative impact on the environment. Admittedly, organic products still fetch premium prices in the market, so it's not for everyone but, as mentioned, there are certainly many other ways to change one's eating habits for a more sustainable future.

He’ll always be remembered as Romeo, Jack Dawson, and, of course, Luke Brower fromGrowing Pains, but Leonardo DiCaprio’s roles and acting talent aren’t the only qualities leaving a mark. For example, if you’re a true fan, then you know how much Leonardo DiCaprio supports the environment. It seems when he isn’t starring on the big screen or being honored with major awards, DiCaprio is showing love to our planet and its creatures. Just as much as he’s recognized for being in showbiz, he’s also making a difference in the environment.
