Thought Orphanage

‘On a random weekend evening, my wife and I decided to sit down and write some lines about environmental stewardship. They turned into personal pledge cards for a community organization I got myself involved with in Lincoln, Nebraska, called Lincoln Green by Design. The cards were designed in an eco-friendly way, made out of paper scraps from past print runs. The messages were both sustainable and witty. One of my personal favorites was “I will eat local. Food not people.” Right up there with “I will stop (using plastic sacks) in the name of love.”’

The opening paragraph to The Volunteer Design Chronicles, great little article over at Design Observer today.
