Pollution

We all know about pollution. It is produced by factories, cars, cow's digestive systems and much more. It is detrimental to our health and is slowly destroying our planet. But how much pollution is there actually? How does one even calculate such a broad concept?

The Yale and Columbia Universities have come up with the Environmental Performance Index to give the public (and those in charge) an idea of how polluted their countries are and what areas in specific are lacking (or are doing really well).
Do you want to know how healthy [insert country] really is? How safe the drinking water and what about the air quality? No need to wait any longer, they've assembled it all in a very pleasing format, entirely available online.

2011 has ended and 2012 is already well underway. It is time to take a tally. 
Did you make any resolutions this year? Are any of them green? 
We checked the Internet for New Year's resolutions and present you with some of them. Hopefully we can inspire you!
