WHAT ARE YOUR NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS?
by Emily Pilloton, 01/03/07
Now that you’ve heard from us, as well as innovators within the green design world, it’s time to hear from you! As we look towards a new year to forecast, to hope, and to think broadly about design, what do you hope to see change in the next year? What do you foresee being influential, important, or groundbreaking? How do you hope to contribute? In short, what are your global design resolutions for the coming year? Please comment on this post- we’d love to hear your thoughts!
In the true spirit of sustainability, let’s provide educational opportunities for students to explore creative ideas and concepts that will fuel the sustainable movement. Already, schools are introducing sustainability concepts into science, woodshop, design, entrepreneurship, and community service programs. The more students learn about the value of good intentions, good design, and good sense, the more they will seek out solutions to some of our global problems. This young generation has grown up with the double-edged gift of technology, let’s provide a productive environment for them to apply their academic and problem-solving skills in a sustainable context. Cheers!
