Walt Disney World's Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground earned spots on the Florida Green Lodging Program.

The locations are the 45th and 46th to receive the state designation.

Florida's Green Lodging Program, launched in March 2004, sets environmental guidelines for hotels and motels for conserving natural resources and preventing pollution.

Gov. Charlie Crist signed an executive order in July requiring that state agencies and departments hold conferences at hotels with the Florida Green Lodging Program.

Disney's Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground have made changes to help conserve water and energy, reduce waste and improve indoor air quality. The hotels are using low-flow toilets and fixtures, energy-efficient lighting, environmentally preferable cleaners and recycling office paper.

Disney World is under the Disney Parks & Resorts unit of the Walt Disney Co.
