The 11th Hour

The film, "The 11th Hour", is an eye-opening film that portrays the consequences humankind will face from treating the planet poorly. Just like how we have been for the past few decades. Hopefully people will watch this film and be able to walk away with a sense of urgency to slow the direction we are moving towards, which ultimately is extinction from the planet. Like the movie suggests, the environment will survive. It is the human race that will first have to adapt to extreme conditions of living including: extreme weather, scarce food supply, contaminated water resources, and many other harming factors. If actions are not taken now, living conditions will only get worse and casualties will become more common.
As a designer in this world at this time, there is plenty of work to be done. Our planet is in need of designers who can figure out solutions to the environmental problems we are facing now. Creating energy efficient anything will help to combat and slow the environmental changes we are seeing occur today. If action is not taken, the environment will start changing faster. I think it is an exciting and important time to be a designer on planet Earth.
