“There’s a new breed of designers emerging… designers that want to focus their creative talents towards solving our climate crisis. We’re calling them climate designers.”
In this episode, we talk about the role that creativity and design play in addressing our climate crisis. We don’t need to sit and wait for a client to ask us to make something eco-friendly. We have the ability and perhaps the responsibility...
