Designers, Visionaries + Other Stories Foreword/Intro

From reading this, what I thought was how we as designers are affecting the world this much. Bruce Nussbaum talk about how we fuck up his word. I totally fucking agree.

This intro focuses on how we affect the world physically, I agree with that but what I think is worse is the fact that its affecting us mentally and emotionally.

We all have a choice but our responds are always "No I dont have a choice"... thats all bullshit. They say that its our job thats on the line. Well if we dont act now... this is our lives on the line.

The article talks about what I just talked about... making up excuses on the fact that they dont have a choice which they always do.

Everything from advertisement, commercials and even when they say the MAC laptop is going green... its greener but they are also correct at the fact that there are matters, energy, and sooo many other shit in it that would be better for something else. And while doing this... its taking all the damn resources.

HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We're dumbasses including myself..... I know I'm a fuckin Hypocrite cos I love MACs but as soon as the advertisement design by people said that its the greenest laptop suddenly people start to care. DUDE, we say how we wanna go green... but what we're doing is still not green. Its green-ER not green.

Its like say that Tyra Banks is fat now... NOOOOOOO she's fat-TER. NOT FAT!

I love how they mention that there are designers who feel bad and try to change.

The keyword is Try. The author said how we need to get up and make changes. But seriously, people arent even aware of the facts like these things that they are doing. HOW FUCKIN IRONIC. This guy is helping our planet. HOW??

Well, he is educating us about the fact that we didnt even know... that I didnt even know. He is telling us of how ridiculous we are to buy a product that kills our planet when we preach about saving it. Just because they say its greener... doesnt mean that its gonna help our world.

But we can look at the sense of... could we really get it 100% green???? Thats the question that we need to find a solution to.

At the Design exhibit in London in 2006, 53% said that we went be able to go 100% green and the other 47% think that we can.

Whats the answer??? No one fuckin know at this point.


The author mentions the fact that it all starts with the design to make it green. And its hard to buy green shit. This is where I disagree with the author. Its fuckin hord to design green product too.

Are you kidding me?

If we're gonna go green... we need to figure out a way for us to go back to the man cave era for christ's sake.

And how are we gonna be saving the damn world and be happy with less technology? (most technologies arent green.)

As humans, we love technology. And we're selfish. It would take an empire of mankind to go back to the original way to make this Earth healthy and everyone is wayyyy tooo selfish to do that. Ridiculous!!!!

We wanna think about the world but we are warped into our happiness and we forget about others. Lets be real... if you have a business and you want it to sell. You dont give a shit about global warming or the other shit that comes with it. We think "ohhhh just let other people do it"... we all fuckin think that. It is fuckin crazy. Everyone is selfish.

Ok... now talking about organizations that help this world... BULLSHIT.

I agree with the author.... they dont do shit. They brag about how... theyre TRYING to help the world.

Again...... TRYING is the keyword. But they dont CHANGE shit. They TRY to change shit, but it dont work.

OHHHH OHHHHHH

Lemme say a bit about shit like ohhhh we cant do this and that. they say shit like that cos Its MONEYY.

I mean i understand that GW Bush screwed us with debt. But America spends money on shit like war and terrorists that dont exist.......................... and we can do more research and/or produce more shit that is green.

LIKE shit that use wind and solar power.

WE have it but doesnt want to expand it.... YEAH and we spend countless shitty hours on WAR and Sadam who isnt connected with osama/chickenshit.

WOW.

This essay definitely says... we need to change our lives. THANKS...

There may be a part 2 cos i wanna say more, to be honest.
