Specifically, the discoloration is an indicator that the egg was overcooked, similar to how meat or rice might also get darker when overcooked.
What causes this color change?
Hydrogen sulfide from the egg white interacts with iron from the yolk. This process causes the change in color.
How do you avoid the green ring for good?
The key is to make sure to cook your hard boiled eggs for the correct amount of time.
