rastra.com - a green do-it-yourself building material that, unlike most insulated concrete forms, has recycled form, post consumer plastics; it’s sustainable, energy efficient & fire resistant.

Betten Court Green Building Supplies - a Brooklyn-based, east-coast supplier of green building supplies. Check out their paper-stone countertops — made of 100% post consumer recycled paper set in water-based resin, and is FSC-certified.
800 883 7005

GreenGridRoofs.com - modular green grid rooftop systems and rooftop gardens, LEED-certified.

BondedLogic - insulation solutions utilizing natural fibers, ie: cotton.

EnviroGlas Products - floors, counter-tops and tiles — all made from recycled glass.

LGElectronics - with a focus on sustainability, LG brings new energy-efficient and innovative products to the market.

Yahoo!’s even made more of a shift to green, going carbon neutral for all global operations. In honor of Earth Day, they’ve created a green outpost of sorts, with is own mod green house - sans live plants. Kinda cool.
