2016 Sustainable Destinations Top 100 2016 2016 Sustainable Destinations Top 100 At the occasion of World Tourism Day and Global Green Destinations Day, 27-28 September 2016, the Sustainable Destinations Top 100 is launched for the second time to celebrate the efforts of tourism destinations for responsible and sustainable tourism. The list is the result of open calls in newswires and the social media. Everybody could nominate destinations through a form that was available online. Nominators had to provide extensive information on the destination and on its efforts for sustainability. Information had to be provided about the extent the destination complies with the15 core criteria of the Green Destinations Standard (table). Over 150 nominations were received. All nominations were evaluated by experts of the Green Destinations Top 100 Team and by members of the special Top 100 Selection Panel, that included sixty tourism sustainability experts. The Top 100 initiative aims to recognise tourism destinations that have worked hard to make a difference and take sustainability seriously. Nevertheless, no destination is sustainable for the full 100%. Also in the selected destinations important issues remain to be solved. Carbon emission of travel could not be taken into account in this competition. However, Green Destinations recommends travellers to avoid long haul travels and to compensate their carbon emission. The Top 100 selection can be found in: www.greendestinations.info. More info: [email protected] 27 September 2016 Criteria (titles) used to evaluate destination nominations: • Sustainability coordinator • Cultural heritage conservation • Sustainable tourism policy • Protection of intangible heritage • Nature protection • Protection of people • Respect for animals • Inhabitants involved in tourism • Protection of landscape & scenery • Promoting local products • Waste water treatment • Health & safety prevention • Solid waste reduction • Accessibility for disabled • Reduction of fossil fuel dependency Top 100 Competition Directors: Albert Salman, Green Destinations; Valere Tjolle, Vision for Sustainable Tourism; Jonathan Tourtellot, Destination Stewardship Center; Masaru Takayama, Asian Ecotourism Network; Brian Mullis, Sustainable Travel International; Randy Durband, GSTC, Special Advisor Top 100 Team at Green Destinations: Zainab Turay, Hugo de Jong, Bastien Villaret, Giada Mignolli, Lisa Ragozina, Irene Lamme, Vera Veldhoven, Ieva Zamaraite, Nico den Hollander, Nacho Jauregui.

  • Planning the Horticultural Sector Managing Greenhouse Sprawl in the Netherlands
    Planning the Horticultural Sector Managing Greenhouse Sprawl in the Netherlands Korthals Altes, W.K., Van Rij, E. (2013) Planning the horticultural sector: Managing greenhouse sprawl in the Netherlands, Land Use Policy, 31, 486-497 Abstract Greenhouses are a typical example of peri-urban land-use, a phenomenon that many planning systems find difficult to address as it mixes agricultural identity with urban appearance. Despite its urban appearance, greenhouse development often manages to evade urban containment policies. But a ban on greenhouse development might well result in under-utilisation of the economic value of the sector and its potential for sustainability. Specific knowledge of the urban and rural character of greenhouses is essential for the implementation of planning strategies. This paper analyses Dutch planning policies for greenhouses. It concludes with a discussion of how insights from greenhouse planning can be applied in other contexts involving peri-urban areas. Keywords: greenhouses; horticulture; land-use planning; the Netherlands; peri-urban land-use 1 Introduction The important role played by the urban-rural dichotomy in planning practice is a complicating factor in planning strategies for peri-urban areas, often conceptualised as border areas (the rural-urban fringe) or as an intermediate zone between city and countryside (the rural-urban transition zone) (Simon, 2008). However, “[t]he rural-urban fringe has a special, and not simply a transitional, land-use pattern that distinguishes it from more distant countryside and more urbanised space.” (Gallent and Shaw, 2007, 621) Planning policies tend to overlook this specific peri-environment, focusing rather on the black-and-white difference between urban and rural while disregarding developments in the shadow of cities (Hornis and Van Eck, 2008).

  • Unidos Alcanzaremos Un Vieques Libre: Discourse As a Reflection Of
    UNIDOS ALCANZAREMOS UN VIEQUES LIBRE: DISCOURSE AS A REFLECTION OF SOCIAL AND GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION by REBECCAH ANNE SANDERS (Under the Direction of Elois Ann Berlin) ABSTRACT The sixty-year history of United States Naval activity on Vieques Island, Puerto Rico has been plagued with protests by island residents who have varyingly applied environmental and social justice discourse in their movement to evict the Navy. The most current inception of demonstrations spans a wide geographic range, centering on the island itself and radiating to cities throughout the continental United States. As the island prepares for a referendum determining the fate of the Navy’s presence, the social and political influence of these campaigns has risen dramatically. The movement has gained political and popular support with its dedication to civil disobedience and its rhetoric of health, the environment, human rights, and, more controversially, political determination. This thesis considers how the discourse of the movement reflects the location of its supporters.
