To my eye, if the pdf itself had a bit more visual integrity (ie; remove the jpeg distortion, font blurring [common problems with pdf's, I know]and line-spacing problems)there would be a better relationship between the design and the message, and then the proposed manifesto might be a little more provocative.

I think the link Arctic Luke provided is interesting, and something worth thinking about. Mostly because I think it’s good to be careful of any mass movement–it’s good to think for yourself, to ask questions of all sides. But I also think this is an interesting brochure with a lot of good things that can be applied and still help the world out and ourselves on very basic levels.

Maybe the words “climate change” should not be part of the heading. Something more broad might work better. I think “sustainable” is a great start. “…method of harvesting or using a resource so that the resource is not depleted or permanently damaged”. Thanks Mr. Webster.

But “Climate Change” certainly gets the attention of folks pretty quickly in comparison! It’s useful, but it could be dangerous in other ways–even becoming something closer to negative propaganda. How do you get people to think about things on their own without going so totally specific? Now that’s a challenge!

In the end, a good question to ask is, does it hurt to care about the place we live in?

When I think about that, I do believe there is a place for environmentalism–caring about where we eat and sleep. I do think it’s a good idea apply some of these ideas to help make the spot of earth we live on a better place. We are indeed having an effect on our environment. All you do is have to take a walk around your neighborhood and see the waste we create and its effect on the neighborhood. Go to a local harbor and take note of the “no swimming”, “no fishing” signs. Just observe and take note and think.

I try to think of the practical things I can do, to improve my quality of living, and I believe it might help have a positive effect in small and big ways.
