Fast Company is highlighting ten of the “coolest” innovators rebuilding New Orleans. They culled their top ten from the NOLA 100, a list of socially innovative projects based in New Orleans ( from our friends at All Day Buffet).

We were excited to see two Echoing Green Fellows among the all of the great projects. For example, 2007 Echoing Green Fellow, John Alford and NOLA 180 were featured for their work to turn around failing schools. They also highlighted 2008 Fellows Reuben Teague and Will Bradshaw of Green Coast Enterprises for their work build sustainable, storm-proof homes.
