It’s The Little things

Resource: http://greenmagazine.com.au/its-the-little-things/



I found and watched this short award winning animation Secret Life of Things series. It was created by Leyla Acaroglu, Eco Innovator and supports from Design and Technology Teachers Association Victoria. It tells the story of everyday use object on its point of view and how the product can be misused, neglected and abandoned. First I thought using animation as a education tool was very smart and easy way to introduce the importance of sustainability to public. As it was discussed from previous few posts, it is important to plan ahead and arrange a sustainable environment for future generation. But it does not mean the present issues should be ignored in anyway and when future plans are something that happens in large context, current situation can be start from something small. From the little things that is around you. Designing a product that is re-usable and easy to fix, understanding the right way to use the product for long lasting experience and be aware of every action that can have great impact on environment.
