Dublin lagging behind major European cities in green league

DUBLIN’S “green” rating is lagging behind most major European cities after a survey showed it in the bottom 10.

The study, carried out by the Economist Intelligence Unit, used eight different categories under which to gauge the environmental rating of 30 European capitals.

The Danish capital Copenhagen, which is hosting global talks on climate change, emerged as the greenest city, ahead of Stockholm, Oslo and Vienna.
