Capitalism
We talk a lot about capitalism around these parts because the economic system we currently live within is one of the root causes to many of our issues relating to environmentalism and justice. We’re not prescriptive in the exact economic model that should exist, but we explore what’s out there, what’s working and a future we can work towards.

To shift to a sustainable world, we need to work less, and differently
Nearly one hundred years ago Maynard-Keynes made the famous assessment that the grandchildren of then would be working 15 hours a week with the rest spent on leisure time. His prediction has of course turned out to be astoundingly incorrect. Many of us don’t want to be working this much

Should we work with businesses who destroy the world?
I get asked this question quite a bit. Is it ethical? Does it have an impact? A gambling company was recently recruiting for people in one of my industries in their fancy new office. They struggled. Numerous people turned down an interview to work for a company against their morals.

Where do we go from capitalism? Part One.
What’s the point here I often find myself asking in yet another booming city? That we all capitalize ourselves into the vision of the western dream? Who dreamed up that dream? Do we all think we’re living the dream? It sure doesn’t feel like it. Even the rich are depressed.

Environment impact label
Through a design process we took a stab at creating a back-of-product label that would outline the environmental impact the product you were holding has; whether it’s a piece of food, a processed product, a fashion item, homewares or anything else. We do it with nutritional label on food. We do it with energy efficiency on appliances. We label cigarettes specifically in some countries to discourage use. Why not do it with the environment?
