Fall in love with our gorgeous planet all over again. How lucky are we on this beautiful blue orb? Here's NASA's recent release of its high-definition photo. And remember the one we all flipped out over when it was on the cover of the Whole Earth Catalogue--taken from Apollo 17?
One has romance, one has clarity; we need both.
I never thought about AIR from a design point of view, but now that I'm gazing at this floating sphere, I'm thinking: Hey, we have air that is perfectly proportioned, each element balanced for optimum life. Air pollution is a design problem--and the catastrophic speeding up of earth's global warming is a result of air pollution. Or rather, it is a problem of ruining what was a gorgeous design that makes possible the life we cherish.
