Despite over 50 years of calls for action on ecological concerns, the design industry has not yet enacted a substantial response to the accelerating climate and ecological emergencies. Design institutions are slowly responding with attempts to bridge the gap between current design priorities and those that will enable the design of sustainable ways of living on the planet. The Design Research Society Sustainability Special Interest Group (DRS SUS-SIG) aims to facilitate responsive actions on a scale that could make a difference.
