Why?

Human beings are poised on thethreshold of a new age when they will

begin turning their eyes back tonature and to the old ways ... back tothe ideas in books like the Zohar and

other ancient texts from around theworld.(Brown, 2009)

30-40% energy

0.002% of material for plastic

Conclusion

Applicable

Complement modern day

Vernacular does NOT mean

Cradle-to-Cradle

But I can tell you, sustainability isboring. It is just the minimum. Likewhen you were asked: How is yourrelationship with your girlfriend?

What do you say? Sustainable? Idsay: I am so sorry for you. Design isthe complete opposite ofsustainability. We would still live on

trees if we were sustainable

Hope you learntsomething
