The Portland metro area edges out San Fransisco, Honolulu, and Austin for the "greenest" city in American.  The Green Index measures each city on their adoption of green technologies, LEED-certified projects, environmental practices, air and water quality, among others.  

Take a look at the Green City Index to see how Portland, Oregon stacks up.  Looking at the Portland data, they are predicting that Portland will have more than 50,000 green jobs in 2038.
