Ayer se publicó en la web de la CNN el reportaje This airport runs on wind. El aeropuerto de las islas Galápagos es un ejemplo de un infraestructura ecológica:
The Galapagos Islands are among the most environmentally precious -- and sensitive -- regions on earth. Airports, by contrast, tend to leave a pretty disastrous carbon footprint. It should come as no surprise that the Galapagos is also home to what has been hailed as the world's first "green" airport.
Galapagos Ecological Airport (formally Seymour Airport) was built in 2012 to run solely on solar and wind power, and 80% of its infrastructure is made from materials recycled from the old building. It even has mechanical shutters that open and close depending on the building's heat and CO2 levels. Fresh water comes care of the airport's own desalination plant, which converts local seawater.
