1 renowned: "Renowned" is the right answer here. To be "known for" something is to be "renowned" or "famous" for something one does. Example: "Philip is known for his love of flirting".
1 infamous: This is not the best choice. To be "infamous for" something is to have a bad reputation because of it. This does not share a similar meaning with the term "known".
1 praised: This is not the best choice. To be "praised" for something is to be "congratulated" for it. This does not share a similar meaning with the term "known".
1 controversial: This is not the best choice. To be "controversial" is to be "unusual", or the subject of much debate. This does not share a similar meaning with the term "known".
2 green: "Green" is the best answer here. The term "eco-friendly" is short for "environmentally-friendly", and describes someone or something which is "good for the environment".

2 money-saving: This is not the right choice here. A "money-saving" action will preserve cash, but it does not share a similar meaning with "eco-friendly", which refers to saving the environment.
