15 Green Cities 51
by Grist 19 Jul 2007 5:08 PM
These metropolises aren't literally the greenest places on earth -- they're not necessarily dense with foliage, for one, and some still have a long way to go down the path to sustainability. But all of the cities on this list deserve recognition for making impressive strides toward eco-friendliness, helping their many millions of residents live better, greener lives. If your favorite green city didn't make the list, tell us why it deserves recognition in the comments section at the bottom of the page.
1 Reykjavik, Iceland
Remember the grade-school memory device "Greenland is icy and Iceland is green"? It's truer than ever thanks to progress made by Iceland and its capital city in recent years. Reykjavik has been putting hydrogen buses on its streets, and, like the rest of the country, its heat and electricity come entirely from renewable geothermal and hydropower sources and it's determined to become fossil-fuel-free by 2050. The mayor has pledged to make Reykjavik the cleanest city in Europe. Take that, Greenland

The Temporary Vegetarian: Five Vegetables and 15-Grain Rice Pot
theres only one thing wrong with rob corddrys ridiculously funny hospital drama parody childrens hospital, each episode is only 15 minutes. catch it on cartoon networks sundays at 1030.
amc has a new drama premiering next week called rubicon that has some promise if you are a fan of cryptography and crypto-goverment conspiracies. rubicons premiere is available for streaming and runs on sundays at 9 prior to madmen.
giving fringe the belated thumbs up. very x-files with a mix of bio-tech monster of the week and a meta-story with a longer arc that instead of a search for aliens is more about pushing the boundaries of scientific possibility. oh, and its created by jj abrams and written/produced by the duo that penned the latest star trek movie. third season starts in september. so catch up!
daily shows john olivers podcast, the bugle.
