Project Description:
Created for Seed Magazine, this diagram maps the connections between the most disparate of forces, events and systems affecting our planet. In the center of the concentric circles are the most fundamental influences (population growth, deforestation, increased fertilizer demand, etc). Rippling outward are the effects, which create a surprising number of synergies. Red lines depict reinforcing relationships, while blue lines show some of the inhibitory forces that also come into play.

Few can comprehend such complexity which is why "green" is so much more popular than "sustainable." That's why a framework for sustainability is essential. Until you take a holistic view of things, the best intentions can create more problems than they create.
