Which State Cares Most About the Environment?

January 20, 2016 by Environmental ADR Editor Leave a Comment

Environmental AwarenessSeriously, what did we do before Google? Not only do we have information on virtually everything under, on and above the sun, but we also now have data and trends.

The folks at SaveOnEnergy have collected and mined this Google Trends Search Volume data – putting together this awesome infographic below titled  ‘Which States Care Most About The Environment?‘ which they’ve graciously shared with our readers.  Sharing is caring!

Ever wonder which U.S. state searches ‘how to recycle‘ most often? How about searching ‘how to reuse‘ most often?Well, now you have those answers!  Using Google Trends, SaveOnEnergy collected 12 months worth of commonly searched environmentally friendly phrases and terms. With that information, they were then able to gauge state-level interest in green activities such as;

  • planting and gardening
  • composting,
  • energy efficiency,
  • eco-friendly,
  • organic,
  • air quality and
  • energy

We have a feeling that many of our now loyal Earth911 readers were some of those ‘searching’ for the above information!

When it comes to reuse, here’s what the data showed, “Old bottles can become candleholders; empty egg cartons can store holiday ornaments. Reusing is all the rage for eco-conscious Americans. When it comes to the phrase “how to reuse,” a high cost of living may explain the top two results: California took the lead, followed by Hawaii. Washington State, Georgia, and Utah rounded out the top five.”

The inter-generational theft of Brexit and climate change

In last week’s Brexit vote results, there was a tremendous divide between age groups. 73% of voters under the age of 25 voted to remain in the EU, while about 58% over the age of 45 voted to leave. This generational gap is among the many parallels … Read More...

Our Drinking Water Regulation Is So Weak Even Flint’s Water Got A Pass

About Me

I have formed these views after mediating environmental cases for more than 20 years, throughout the United States, and having worked with thousands of lawyers, companies, insurance carriers, regulatory agencies and courts.
