People nowdays think about how environmentally safe and/or sustainable designs. I think making design based on safety of environment is very important. Pollution is the biggest problem. Forest is about to be gone due to lack of trees(people cut down the trees). We need to save our earth by designing things sustainable and environmetally safe.
