When we think ‘green’, maybe we have certain associations that float around our minds. Maybe we think of a solitary hemp-clothed peacenik living on a grassy rolling plain, at one with nature, and uncluttered by the accouterments of the city. And maybe Edvard Greig’s ‘Peer Gynt’ is playing somewhere in the background, too.
Yet, according to recent research it seems that, when it comes to the greenest place in America, we should change our vision from a bucolic rural scene of a solitary man with Greig floating all around him, and change it to the bustling metropolis of New York City, with its teeming masses, apartment buildings, and maybe put on a little Talking Heads, Ramones, or maybe the New York Dolls.
