Racing along our current path of development we ignore the warnings sounded by those who are not misled by short-term priorities.

Increasing product lifetime through better design, repair and re-use is more effective than recycling since it doesn’t require processing recycled materials.
Sustainable development is a pattern of resource use that aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for future generations.
