With Earth Day only a few days away, we are all wondering how we can do our part of being more green.

With that, I received this really cool list of free green apps available on both Android and iPhone from Verizon Wireless, that making it easier for customers to go green.

Below is Verizon Wireless New York’s top-5 picks green apps this Earth Day:
