Cover Story: Ecology and Design.
Climate change has long since ceased to not only be an issue for politicians and the media. An increasing number of companies are marketing products that are sold as being ecologically meaningful. So when is ecology simply a marketing instrument and when is it based on truly sustainable ideas? And what role can designers play in implementing ecologically meaningful products? We show what current product development strategies there are and the approach that should be taken if you want to produce sustainable printed matter.
