Homework Week 7

What is 'cradle to cradle' design and how can you see this applied in the Graphic Design industry? 
Cradle to Cradle refers to protecting and enriching the ecosystem and environment. In terms of design we can look at indistrial design and manufacturing in a way which doesn't cripple the environment. 

In the 'Creative Gallery on Sustainable Communications '- what ad has the most impact for you and why? 
The 'Trash Seabirds' ad has the most impact on me. It feels very unnecessary that wildlife should have to suffer and live the way they are because people don't want to recycle. 

"If you don't pick it up they will"



List five things that a Graphic Designer can do in their practice to decrease their impact on the environment. 
1. Use more technical and biological materials.
2. Material reutilization (Re-use and recycle materials)
3. Aim to use 100% renewable energy
4. Keep in mind the impact on human health
5. Socal responsibility (fair labor practices)
