We All Walk in Different Shoes is a great campaign from Kenneth Cole, which celebrates '25 years of non-uniform thinkers.'
"Appearance can be a defining characteristic for us all but it's the ability to think differently that really makes a difference."

Ever wondered what will happen if we fail to prevent Climate Change? Read this article and watch the video of the real Plan B, from the Guardian.
February 26 2008: An ambitious project to safeguard the world’s future food supplies was inaugurated today. The £1.7m “Noah’s ark of seeds” near the town of Longyearbyen, in Norway's remote Svalbard islands, will protect the 2m seeds that represent the world’s agricultural biodiversity against threats such as nuclear war, asteroid impact, terrorist attack, climate change and rising sea levels.

Scanning the digital pages of The Guardian Newspaper this weekend, I came across a recently launched campaign entitled The Big Ask... Are European Governments Doing Enough About Climate Change?
The Big Ask unites Friends of the Earth groups across Europe in a call for governments to commit to binding annual targets for cutting emissions. Around Europe people are asking their politicians to take responsibility for tackling dangerous climate change.
The launch of the campaign this week, involved endorsement from Radiohead's Thom Yorke.

My desire is to make every home in America beautiful if I can. Volunteering with Habitat for Humanity in Atlanta, Georgia and targeting the poorest neighborhoods will be a good start.

I would like to invite you all to visit the website of the International Conference "Changing the Change" www.changingthechange.org
"The conference seeks to make a significant contribution to a necessary transformation that involves changing the direction of current changes toward a sustainable future. It specifically intends to outline the state-of-the-art of design research in terms of visions, proposals and tools with which design can actively and positively take part in the wider social learning process that will have to take place.
Changing the Change wants to be a research conference with a strong and ambitious political goal: to focus on the design research potentialities in the transition towards a sustainable knowledge society."
