Wanted: Your Solutions to Humanity’s Crises
The Brooklyn-based Buckminster Fuller Institute (BFI) has just announced its call for entries to the 2009 Buckminster Fuller Challenge. So if you’ve got a solution to the U.S. and global financial meltdowns, accelerating climate change, collapsing ecosystems and/or world poverty, the institute wants to hear it.
“We’re looking for comprehensive anticipatory design solutions that address multiple problems without creating new ones down the road — integrated strategies dealing with key social, economic, environmental, and cultural issues,” says Elizabeth Thompson, BFI’s executive director.
