The bad news: The world is at, or near, unprecedented tipping points involving climate change, peak oil, deforestation, species extinction and water scarcity. The tenuous relationship between humans and the natural world has become an unsustainable scenario. The good news: Design is one of the only viable options we have to help shape a positive future. Design with a big D. Design that includes invention, human ingenuity, innovation and creative problem solving.
