List your top five states that have the most eco-friendliness. Examples include many eco buildings, wind farms, solar farms, etc.

1. California
2. Texas
3. New York
4. Colorado
5. North Dakota

[Hoarfrost]

I have an easy top three:
1.Oregon
2.Washington
3.California(The California Academy of Sciences pretty much beats any other eco-friendly building I've ever heard of.)

Beyond that I don't have ranks, but tiers.

Metrogrades: The Best Cities for Recycling: Men's Heath.com
In my opinion, Colorado doesn't deserve the "green" reputation it receives. Men's Health recently ranked the 100 best cities for recycling, on a scale where 1 is best and 100 is worst. Aurora, CO came in at 92 while Colorado Springs came in at 98.

Here's my list:
1. California
2. New York
3. Vermont
4. Pennsylvania
5. Wisconsin

Texas? TEXAS????? How the hell did Texas get on there?

Yeah I'd be interested to hear about Texas especially since I read a New York Times story about how governments in the big cities just aren't very behind recycling.

as for eco-friendly buildings, so many of them are built mainly for show.

[thedudewiththeplan]

Yeah, I would be suspicious of Texas being on there too. Not exactly the most well known for their tight pollution controls.

[backdrifter]

Yep.
1. California/Oregon (tie in certain ways)
Close number 2. Washington
Next tier...
Vermont or possibly other New England states maybe?
Next tier...
Rest of the states.

1.California
2.Oregon
3.Washington
Can't think of anymore.

[Hoarfrost]

Are the West Coast and New England really all the environmentally friendly states there are?
