green ("eco") pavers
By green, I believe that they mean eco-friendly composite bricks/blocks for surfacing patios and other outdoor spaces - not the color. There is an example at: http://www.green-talk.com/2009/04/08/vast-pavers-are-the-gre... Here they are actually called "paviours" (I think it's a French style of word like the British "maisonette"). http://www.ivillage.co.uk/how-lay-a-patio/79531
