Reducing your carbon footprint isn't only about trading in your Hummer for a Hybrid.

And while your life may not be entirely guilt-free (remember last weekend?), at least your vacations can be.

Here to save the environment one wet bar at a time, we present Bucuti Beach Resort - an unmatched eco-friendly destination on Aruba's Eagle Beach.  Set on a 14-acre stretch of the island's best beach, Bucuti is a distinctly European-inspired getaway complete with environmentally inspiring features.  And we're not just talking about energy saving light bulbs either.  Try:  recycled towels (not as gross as it sounds), water-saving faucets, and A/C from 11 am to 7 pm - only.  But, alas, this Green Globe resort can be fun too.

Other than the resort basics (swimming pool, private beach, remarkably thoughtful service), what you're looking at are hacienda-style buildings housing so many different room options you'd think they were recycled.  Check into the penthouse - we're biased - and take a deep breath of your smoke-free air (sorry chimneys, no smoking allowed).  Furnished with a luxurious, yet minimalist, appeal, the penthouse features a king size, four poster bed and a romantic claw foot tub - which comes in handy when you and your pretty guest suddenly remember your water-saving pledge.

Look at you, doing your part to save the world.
