ABOUT THIS THEME

It is no secret to anyone that climate change is a reality in progress. The time to take action to reverse the scale of this catastrophe is in everyone’s hands. Through design, we can achieve an impact that affects large corporations, state policies, and ourselves, to take actions that can curb and urgently reverse climate change. How can we respond to the greatest challenge of our time, with urgency and optimism? In the creativity of many designers, architects, activists and artists we can find the spark that ignites ideas.
