Creative Loafing published a "Green Report Card" for Tampa Bay back in January and while I have seen some changes since then, the report card for Hillsborough County is atrocious and the report for Florida is not awful, but definitely needs improvement.

On this subject, Florida and Tampa grade like a bored high school student - a meager C+. The only way we can make strides forward is to encourage your local government (Charlie Christ, Pam Iorio) to make a bigger effort to be green!
