According to research by EDF Energy, Coronation Street characters are the 2nd best at being environmentally friendly. Even more surprisingly, Rosie Webster is the character third best at reducing their carbon footprint and Ken Barlow was fifth.
The research was based on how often characters used public transport, the amount of times they used electrical equipment and if they remembered to switch them off, and using local markets, amongst other criteria.
Obviously, this isn't something to take too seriously, as I doubt the scriptwriters are actively trying to make the characters greener, but what does everyone else think?
