Sustainable Visionaries

This project outlines a need for the slow transition towards net zero sustainable systems of living instead of current norms and habits grounded in a high carbon and polluting system. Through using technologies already available to live more sustainably, they looked at how small-scale community level change can encourage participation with green initiatives. Through examining communities levels of food waste, travel and energy consumption, the project suggests a stronger sense of change in local settings.
