We still have a long way to go

Tonight I went and listened to the co-chair of the AIGA Center for Sustainable Design, Phil Hamlett give an empassioned talk about sustainability and the roles of designers in helping to change things. At the end he flashed a picture of his infant daughter on the screen to put home the point of why he thought the movement is important. He choked up and tears welled in his eyes. I even had to hold back at that point. And what did the first guy in the audience who got up to throw away his empty watter bottle do?

Chuck it into the normal garbage which was next to not one but THREE recycle bins! Awesome.
