1. How can we blame the Jews for being so good?
(03.01.12)
2. USA Will Never Make The List
emanon ,   USA   (03.01.12)
This country is too controlled by petro-based industries and the related coal lobby to ever go green. The latest plots being slammed down American's throats by brainwashing advertising is Marcellus Shale gas production. Yes it potentially may be a cleaner fuel, but it is being produced at the expense of using dirty technology and shoddy workmanship that ends up poisoning the environment. Another part of other problem is the American car makers pushing people to own large inefficient vehicles. The bigger the vehicle, the higher status you have, that's the American way!
3. Another reason to be proud of Israel!
Michael Redbourn ,   Arad Israel   (03.01.12)
4. Kol Hakavod Israel!
Mina ,   Haifa, Israel   (03.01.12)
One more achievements to be proud of out of many. A light to the nations. May God Bless Israel the Jewish people and those who bless sthem.
5. #2 Can you read???
kelly ,   toronto   (03.02.12)
"Topping the list was Denmark, followed by Israel, Sweden, Finland and the United States."
6. #5 can read of course
Borislava ,   Sofia, Bulgaria   (03.03.12)
but they are very busy (performances) and have no time for the whole article. One reads the title and the other commented. On the topic - Kol Hakavod Israel
7. How about the power station in Hadera?
Susya Bar Dror ,   IL   (03.04.12)
Its releasing almost daily toxic fumes. The yellowish fumes can be seen from as far as 10-20 km. The fumes are very noxious and dangerous for kids. Citizens: you are not well treated!
8. #7 quite right. Israelis CREATE clean-tech;they don't USE it
L ,   Merkaz, Israel   (03.04.12)
Remember the Maccabiah bridge collapse, when those Australian athletes fell off into the Yarkon in TA and died...one from the fall, but the rest from the infectious water!!! I'm in the merkaz and the air is SO brown some days -- that I feel like I'm back in LA again. Don't you know? The good that Israel creates is for EXPORT where people can afford it.
9. Why did the Danes best us?
Banofi   (03.05.12)
Let's focus on beating those meatballs for next year's index. Good clean sportsmanlike fun.
10. Newsweek Mistake ?
Lenya ,   Australia   (10.31.12)
After reading this article I was surprised to read in another article that not one Israeli company was listed in Newsweek's ranking of the world's top 500 green companies. Has Newsweek missed Israel by mistake ?
