Just three years later, McCartney's profits have increased 600%, companies as diverse as eBay, Tag Heuer and Ligne Roset are making huge strides in their sustainable designs and policies, and consumers are rejecting plastic for paper?or better yet, cloth?when they shop. With the environment top of mind nowadays, it's not such a stretch anymore to single out the Green Design 100: the people, companies, products and ideas behind today's most influential and sustainable design...
