Nice article I interned for www.biggreencart.com an eco-friendly auction/swap site . We participated in the Go Green Expo in April (in the Hilton Hotel ) , wish our website would have been nominated .
Time's Up rocks! I personally volunteer with this group and it's amazing how much they get done with only volunteers and a very small budget. You can truly see the positive changes all over the city. Time's Up definitely deserves this award after all of it's long hard work and it's nice to see they are finally being recognized. Thank you Time's Up for making my New York City a more environmentally friendly place.
