As you brilliantly wrote, SIT offers a more structured and efficient way for designing for efficiency. The challenge for us, if we want to add our two sand grains for leveraging global sustainability, blinks in neon lights: How to make diffusion of SIT - at a larger scale - more efficient, so more and more designers will fill their whiteboards with more "cradle to cradle" value offers? How does a specific initiative such as a SIT Institute of Sustainable Design sound?
