Greenest States in America The United States of America is home to many of the most popular tourist spots. Between Washington D.C. to New York City to the Las Vegas strip to New Orleans, both citizens and foreigners alike are frequenting our most busiest states but are these states environmentally friendly?   The most important step that any person can take in helping to protect this planet   is by living a life that is wholly green and that includes the places that you live or frequent. So what are the greenest states in the great USofA?   If you’ve been wondering where in the United States you should be heading to next, you’re going to need to check out the list below.   Our favorite personal finance website, Wallethub, took on the task of comparing and highlighting the greenest or most environmentally friendly states in America.

Man Creates Renewable Energy from Fruits & Veggies!

Congratulations to Carvey Ehren Maigue who recently won the 2020 sustainability award offered by the James Dyson Foundation. The was created as a way to help young people realize their engineering potential. This year the foundation created a sustainability option for their annual award. Carvey is a 27 year old engineer from the Phillipines who developed a system called aureus system technology that uses particles from waste crop (fruit & vegetables) to harvest invisible uv light from the sun. he was chosen from the top 20 award entries.






With Aureus System Technology, Carvey is helping to mitigate climate change by allowing a mode for waste to be upcycled and turned into electricity. When asked how his invention was sustainable, Carvey had this to say:

"We need to utilise our resources more and create systems that don't deplete our current resources. While AuREUS aims to generate electricity from natural resources, I also want to show that, even if we want to become more sustainable, it’s not only the future generation that would benefit, but also us, the present generation. With AuREUS, we upcycle the crops of the farmers that were hit by natural disasters, such as typhoons, which also happen to be an effect of climate change. By doing this, we can be both future-looking, and solve the problems that we are currently experiencing now."

Carvey is hoping that his technology will one day be able to power houses, buildings, cars and perhaps even convert it to wearable technology for clothing.
