was reading the copy of nov’07 reader’s digest and came upon this month’s feature entitled “Living Green” – Ranking the best (and worst) countries”. just to capture the ranking for each item of where i am now (sample size: 141):
Air Quality (rates concentration of several pollutants in urban areas): 140
Water Quality (rates pollutant levels as well as other factors that affect water purity): 124
Energy Effciency: 80
Greenhouse gases: 113
Environmetal health: 45
and from another analysis where major cities in the world were ranked (sample size:72) :
Rank: 71 *GASP*
with the above numbers, i’m sure you can easily find out where i am now (in case you arent aware, i’m away from singapore (ranked:45, has a lot of room for improvement tooï, 不要五十步笑百步)), just visit rd’s website for the full list. you may have to register (free and pretty fast registration process) to look at the full stats.
