In an article for TriplePundit, Erb student Julian Dautremont-Smith evaluates Newsweek's recently released "Green Rankings" of the nation's 500 largest companies.  Dautremont-Smith suggests that in order to better measure the 'green' criteria, the rankings should emphasize industry-level data, directly encourage the highest sustainability priorities, allow companies to opt in, and switch from relative to absolute scoring.
