    This article is misleading. You either are purposely misrepresenting the data or you misunderstood it. The study only looked at transportation and residence energy usage which is obviously lower in a city due to public transportation. With that little of data you can not make a judgement for "the greenest cities". Your article is bad. Also your site is awful because you load ads first.

    This article is incredibly misleading. You are actively ignoring the fact that the survey only talks about transportation and residence energy usage which is obviously better in a city due to public transportation while ignoring everything else. So either you mis understood the data and wrote a poor article or you are misrepresenting the data for sensation. Your article is bad.

    You article is misleading. You are claiming they have a lower impact but you only count transportation and residence which is obviously lower in cities. This article is extremely flawed.

    Ultimately we all need to go green. It shouldn't matter who is now the greenest, we should all be working toward that goal. It will take the planet as a whole to make the biggest impact. We can't suggest going to another place to be green when we need to actively green the place we are at. Everyone need to raise the Bar! onegreenmama.blogspot.com

    Those green with envy of those who have acquired much green, and who themselves are not green when it comes to con jobs, have set out to exploit the green grain of truth in matters pertaining to greening the environment. Even our Absolut or Mexican friends who come in search of green-go cards recognize that like the greengo, he is in constant pursuit of much green, some for himself and some for those the other side of the non existent border fence, where the grass is not greener. When your green-goes into the thin, carbon taxed, formerly air filled pockets of the not so green green-gos, you will really long for greener pastures in search of the devalued green backs.

    You can fool some of the people all of the time and those are pretty good odds.

    I bet if you added in shipping cost and jet fuel per capita, Honolulu would not be ranked No. 1. There is a reason why everything costs 2 -3 times as much as the main land, and that is because they are burning a lot fof fossel fules to get it there.
