<p><a href="https://wallethub.com/edu/greenest-states/11987/" target="_blank">According to a recent study, </a>Rhode Island is the 10th greenest state in the U.S., but the fifth greenest state in New England.</p>

<p>“In the past year, the U.S. has seen an especially devastating amount of natural disasters. According to National Geographic, 17 storms caused an estimated $200 billion in property damage. Hurricane Maria, for example, left Puerto Rico without power for months and severely hurt the territory’s economy. Experts attribute the high number of hurricanes to unusually warm Atlantic waters, so it’s possible that living more sustainably and using greener energy sources could prevent us from having quite as bad hurricane seasons in the future,” said WalletHub.</p><a class="font-bold text-brand-teal" href="/newsletter" style="display:block;margin-bottom:10px;">GET THE LATEST BREAKING NEWS HERE -- SIGN UP FOR GOLOCAL FREE DAILY EBLAST</a>

<p><strong>The Method</strong></p>

<p>In order to determine the greenest states, WalletHub compared the 50 states across three key dimensions: 1) Environmental Quality, 2) Eco-Friendly Behaviors and 3) Climate-Change Contributions.</p>

<p>They evaluated those dimensions using 23 relevant metrics. Each metric was graded on a 100-point scale, with a score of 100 representing the highest level of eco-friendliness.</p>

<p>They then determined each state’s weighted average across all metrics to calculate its total score and used the resulting scores to rank-order our sample.</p>

<p>When it comes time to get all the fallen leaves off of your lawn, don't reach for your electric or gas-powered leaf blower. Appliances like those can release pollutants into the atmosphere, and that is definitely not going green.</p>

<p><span style="line-height:1.6;">Instead, use manual lawn tools like a rake to save energy. </span></p>

              <p><strong>Seal Drafts</strong></p>

<p>To keep the cold fall wind out of your home, and keep your warm air inside, be sure to seal up any drafts around windows or doors in your house or apartment.</p>

<p>"If your air conditioning was running non-stop all summer, then you might have unnoticed leaks in your home. Before it gets too cold, check all your doors and windows for drafty chills that could keep your heater running non-stop too," <a href="https://www.saveonenergy.com/energy-saving-tips/save-energy-this-fall/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">writes Itzner.</a></p>

<p>Drafts can do serious damage to your heating bill, and will be a major drain on energy usage, so make sure to seal them up soon.</p>

              <p><strong>Opt-Out of Junk Mail</strong></p>

<p>Junk mail is the worst. No one likes it, and it only serves to clutter up our homes, trash cans and landfills. But, did you know there is a way to "opt-out" of junk mail?</p>

<p>You can get off most unsolicited mail lists simply by calling 1-888-5-OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688).</p>

<p>Also, instead of browsing through catalogs, look at products online—most catalog companies publish online versions of their products, perfect for saving paper and going green.</p>

              <p><strong>Car Pool</strong></p>

<p>During the holiday season, there is plenty of energy to be saved on the highway by sharing rides with family members or friends headed to the same place.</p>

<p>Before you’re going somewhere, start thinking about who you might be able to carpool with and make arrangements so one car instead of two or three are on the road for the trip. Even if it’s just for a few miles, this adds up and can reduce gridlock and air pollution.</p>

              <p><strong>Don't Dry, Clean Only </strong></p>

<p>Dry cleaning is far more harmful to the environment than your standard load of laundry done in a conventional washing machine.</p>

<p>If you have clothes that can be machined washed rather than dry cleaning, try giving them a run through the washer. And, if you're in the market for a new wardrobe, don't buy clothes with the "dry-clean only" label on them.</p>

<p>"Wash clothes in cold water whenever possible. As much as 85 percent of the energy used to machine-wash clothes goes to heating the water.<br />
Use a drying rack or clothesline to save the energy otherwise used during machine drying," <a href="http://www.worldwatch.org/resources/go_green_save_green" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">says World Watch. </a></p>
