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).

Under the Pioneers category we were happy to see David de Rothschild, who was recently featured on the Greenzer blog for his upcoming Plastiki Expedition from San Francisco to Sydney on a boat made of 100% recycled materials (mostly in the form of two-liter plastic bottles), and who’s been raising environmental awareness all around the world.

Nike securing a spot in the Companies category may have some surprised (few have forgotten the issues the company had with child labor), but they’ve been steadily greening for awhile now and made our blog repeatedly for their eco-friendly products like jackets made from recycled polyester, organic cotton tees, and athletic shoes made with recycled materials. Their Reuse-A-Shoe program has even helped create public basketball courts and athletic tracks worldwide. Click here to read more

Greenzer wishes you a happy Earth Day and humbly announces that today marks our one year anniversary. It was exactly one year ago today that we launched the first public version of Greenzer.com, after several months and many long nights of hard work.

Thank you to all the readers, shoppers, bloggers, retailers, advertisers, designers, partners and bartenders that have allowed us to make it this far!  There’s much more to do, so we’ll keep you updated here on our blog and on twitter.

PC World recently published a list of “Incredibly useful and interesting websites” and featured yours truly, Greenzer. The list of 100 was divided into several categories and Greenzer was chosen in the “7 sites for buying, selling and renting almost anything” section alongside other great sites like Zillow and Freecycle. We’re thrilled that the PC World crew likes our stuff and we hope you do too. Take a look at some of our latest features here.
