GreenCars has posted its annual Greenest and Meanest list. The top scorers include:

1. Honda Civic GX
2. Toyota Prius
3. Honda Civic Hybrid
4. Nissan Altima Hybrid
5. Toyota Yaris
6. Toyota Corolla
7. Toyota Camry Hybrid
8. Honda Fit
9. Kia Rio / Rio 5
10. Hyundai Accent
11. Hyundai Elantra
12. Honda Civic

The list is topped this year not by the Toyota Prius, but by the Honda Civic GX. The GX is a new entry that uses compressed natural gas (CNG). The car is only available in California and New York. So, for the rest of us, the Prius is still the greenest way to go.
