  • DermDoc, on 05/30/2008, -0/+3LOL. LA. I don't believe it.
  • SilentJay74, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2LA cannot be right
  • annjay, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2I like this. Its very interesting
  • scottmoss, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2Hate articles that don't show the entire list..... I always like to see if I'm 11th.... from the top or bottom...
  • johndi, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2The article admits that the study omitted industrial, commercial, and air travel. That means that LAX and the port of Los Angeles (the busiest port in America) don't get counted. It means all air travel to Honolulu doesn't get counted and I doubt they count the shipping to get goods their either. This is so half-assed shenanigans only begins to describe it.
  • gavinhudson, on 06/01/2008, -0/+1I wouldn't have guessed LA, but I know of some great organizations working to green the city, like Tree People.
  • kukon, on 05/30/2008, -0/+1LOL
  • sunsoakgirl, on 05/30/2008, -0/+0fascinating! I can't believe it! I always thought living in a big city was lousy for the environment!
