LMAO

I can't wait to see which of the Birther sites you frequent.. actually ranks the U.S. of A number one for clean air.

I admit, I will never understand the venom some folks have job providers.

So if I cover up the other six countries with a better ranking than us.. with my hand....by golly we ARE #1.

I think I'll try that method next December when the final conference rankings come out ("looka here....Tennessee is #1 by God!").

great stuff

It was five with cleaner air unless I'm missing something. And of those, two aren't even real countries. So, three: Canada, Ireland, and Australia. Canada is America's hat, so they don't count. Ireland should rightfully be averaged with the UK (dirty Limeys still worship the Queen), so now we've got them beat when you look at the aggregate. That leaves us and Australia. And, for that matter, they still have the queen on stamps and money...so add them and India to UK's total, and we are number one!

Ireland should rightfully be averaged with the UK (dirty Limeys still worship the Queen)

Ireland should rightfully be averaged with another country - the UK (dirty Limeys still worship Scotland's Queen)

TFIFY.

The countries above the US play in the Ivy League, the US plays in the SEC....even daft Tennesseans see that.

I would guess the US ranking is based on the untold square miles of midwestern/western scrub land/mountains where less than 5% of the population actually lives or even spends any time at, and that's not even counting Alaska. I wonder what the ranking would be if you looked at just the top 20 urban centers (where I would guess far more than 50% of the population actually lives). Of course, you could say the same for any country, but, like Australia, the US has huge swaths of unpopulated (or mostly unpopulated) land area...

Most counties on this planet aren't even as big as Texas, much less Alaska...

Here's what the tenth worst polluter (and other evil employers) are doing to us!!!llll

Two of the three real countries above the US have that same feature. 80% of Canadians live with 75 miles of the US border (or something like that, and the rest is the Great Frozen North. Australia is three cities with a huge desert and some (virtually) uninhibited wetlands. Even Ireland is 1 real city and a bunch of villages.

Yes, that's why I noted Australia, and other countries like it, as having the same features as the US that would lend them to getting a good ranking, as opposed to anything they've actually done to ameliorate pollution...

Russia and Chiner must be some polluting motherfuckers to not be ranked ahead of the US...
