Financial crisis got you in a funk? Feeling dejected about the election? And is seasonal affective disorder starting to lure you with its siren song of shorter days as the leaves change? Don't despair. The excellent Daily Candy travel bulletin has got you covered with a slew of green getaways that may just be what the doctor didn't order (all the better, actually, no?).

From Belize to Brazil (ahhh, the warm sands of Rio are going to sound pretty good come January...), each eco-lodge has its own uniquely green attributes (nature reserves, sustainable lodges in the rain forest and more) which gives you even more reason to relax. Not that even one reason is necessary. I mean, really, take a look at the headlines and that's Numero Uno  right there.

Click here to check out the list and don't wait for the "perfect opportunity" to jump up and say "go!" It might be right now.
