“I see a world in the future in which we understand that all life is related to us and we treat that life with great humility and respect. I see us as well as social creatures, and when I began to look back and say, ‘what is the fundamental bottom line for us as social creatures?’…I couldn’t believe it because it seemed so hippy dippy, but it was Love. Love is the force that makes us fully human.”
– David Suzuki.
Who is David Suzuki?
David Suzuki is a television host, radio presenter, author, a geneticist, an environmentalist, and one of the most inspiring people for me as a designer-
httpv://au.youtube.com/watch?v=v3ekcwB1oAI
“We need to design communities so that the people who live in them use their cars less and have a lower impact on the environment, and a better quality of life in return.”
I cant help but feel a sense of pride as an architect and designer, that i (even on a small scale) can change the quality of life directly through design.
I first came upon the wise words of David Suzuki in ‘The 11th Hour’ a documentary on the environment, our impact on the earth and the pleading of environmentalists and activists to reverse the damage already done, hosted by Leonardo DiCaprio (no.. don’t laugh, he does a good job) –
Myself and a half dozen other design students trundled along for the first screening of the 11th hour in Melbourne a couple months back, i’m sorry to say that the main reason we went along was that we were members of an offshoot of GBCA (green building council of Australia) called ‘Future Green Leaders’ – and admission (and after movie drinks!) were free.
The first half of the ‘The 11th hour’ mercilessly depicted the atrocities of humankind and our blatant disregard for the environment – it left me feeling uncomfortably humble and quite small (metaphorically) in the grand scheme of things – suggesting that the snowballing that is the earth’s destruction is already a tumbling avalanche, and that we are not just at the 11th hour, but the time is in fact 11:59.
However, hope is offered – (thanks Leo!) though it is up to all of us as individuals to reverse the negative effect we have had on the earth.
“Yeah, we’ve heard this all before,” I hear you say, “I’ve seen already seen an inconvenient truth, we need to change our ways, the earth is in deep shit blah blah blah.”
The message has been drummed into us from environmentalist, activists and politicians for years now, however, for me, it was the visual impact of this movie that particularly spurred me into actively thinking about environmentally friendly design (and lifestyle!) and from it I have adopted heroes such as David Suzuki, who’s passion for the environment is a real inspiration.
and finally, a nice (very relevant) quote that I particularly liked –
“We’re at a point in our history, with 6.4 billion of us, that we have to imagine what it would be like to redesign design itself, see design as the first signal of human intention, and realize that we need new intentions for our future where materials are seen as things that are highly valuable and need to go in closed cycles—what we call cradle to cradle, instead of cradle to grave… So, the design itself changes from mass production of things that are essentially destructive to mass utilization of things that are inherently assets instead of liabilities”
—William McDonough, architect and designer.

I’m certainly pleased I found it and I’ll be
bookmarking it and checking back often!
Thank you for the sensible critique. Me and my neighbor were just preparing to do some research on this.
We got a grab a book from our local library but I think I learned more from this
post. I’m very glad to see such fantastic information being shared freely
out there. https://bellapeaucream.net/

effort to put this content together. I once again find myself spending
a significant amount of time both reading and posting comments.
But so what, it was still worthwhile! https://alphentaketopro.com/
Nice blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download
it from somewhere? A theme like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog stand out.
Please let me know where you got your theme. Appreciate it https://verocream.net/

I got good info from your blog
Last month, when i visited your blog i got an error on the mysql server of yours.*~,”*
Today, I went to the beach front with my kids.
I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell
to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her
ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell
someone!
you are really a good webmaster. The website loading velocity is incredible.
It sort of feels that you are doing any distinctive trick.
Also, The contents are masterpiece. you have done a excellent activity in this topic!
It’s a shame you don’t have a donate button! I’d certainly
donate to this outstanding blog! I guess for now i’ll settle
for book-marking and adding your RSS feed to my Google account.
I look forward to fresh updates and will share this website with my Facebook group.
Talk soon!

Unquestionably consider that that you stated.
Your favourite justification appeared to be on the internet the simplest factor to be aware of.
I say to you, I certainly get irked at the same time as people consider
concerns that they just do not realize about. You
managed to hit the nail upon the highest and outlined out the entire thing without having side-effects , folks could take a signal.
Will likely be again to get more. Thank you

When some one searches for his vital thing, so he/she wants to be available that
in detail, so that thing is maintained over here.
Hello! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve had problems with
hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform.
I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Hey there! I know this is kinda off topic however I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in trading links or maybe
guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa? My website addresses a lot of the same topics as
yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you happen to be interested feel free to shoot me an email.
I look forward to hearing from you! Wonderful blog by
the way!
Superb, what a blog it is! This weblog provides helpful data to us, keep it up.
I am now not positive the place you are getting your information, but great topic.
I needs to spend some time learning more or understanding more.
Thank you for wonderful information I was searching for this info for my mission.
Highly energetic blog, I liked that bit. Will there
be a part 2?
Definitely imagine that that you stated. Your favorite reason seemed to be at
the web the simplest factor to take note of. I say to
you, I definitely get irked even as other folks consider concerns that they just do not recognize about.
You controlled to hit the nail upon the top and
also defined out the entire thing without having side-effects , folks
can take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thank
you
Hey there! This is my first comment here so I just wanted to give a
quick shout out and say I genuinely enjoy reading your articles.
Can you recommend any other blogs/websites/forums that go over
the same subjects? Appreciate it!
Hi! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers?
I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve
worked hard on. Any tips?
Everything is very open with a very clear clarification of the challenges.
It was really informative. Your website is extremely helpful.
Thanks for sharing!

Please let me know. Thank you
Right away I am ready to do my breakfast, when having my breakfast coming over
again to read more news.
of course like your website however you need to
take a look at the spelling on quite a few of
your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling issues and I to find it
very bothersome to inform the truth then again I’ll definitely come back again.
Whoa! This blog looks just like my old one! It’s on a totally different topic but
it has pretty much the same page layout and design. Excellent
choice of colors!
Piece of writing writing is also a fun, if you know then you can write otherwise
it is complicated to write.
I’m really impressed with your writing talents as
well as with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid subject
matter or did you modify it yourself? Either way stay up the
nice quality writing, it’s uncommon to peer a nice weblog like this one nowadays..

I hope to give something back and aid others like you helped me.
Those are yours alright! . We at least need to get these people stealing images to start blogging! They probably just did a image search and grabbed them. They look good though!
I’d have to examine with you here. Which is not one thing I usually do! I take pleasure in reading a post that may make folks think. Additionally, thanks for permitting me to comment!
Absolutely indited content material , appreciate it for entropy.
