If you’re a regular Greenzer visitor, you know by now that we made the list of Time magazine’s Green Design 100 (you can find us in the Websites category) and that we’re rather excited about it, but we thought we’d take a moment to give you a very brief overview of some of the other names on the list (you can check out the full list on the Time site or in the Time issue on newsstands now).
