Protecting the Earth
We now consume more natural resources than all the people who have gone before us put together. And our consumption isn't exactly fair either: 20% of the world's population consumes 80% of the planet's resources!
So what can we do about it? We can ask ourselves how the city works, what it needs and what it wants, and we can ask ourselves some serious questions about the way we live and what we consume.
Do we always think about the consequences of our actions? Do we take enough care of the natural world around us? Cities are changing, growing and transforming under our influence.
We are the ones making it happen.
