Climate change is not a discrete issue; it's a symptom of larger problems. Fundamentally, our society as currently designed has no future. We're chewing up the planet so fast, in so many different ways, that we could solve the climate problem tomorrow and still find that environmental collapse is imminent.
I have designed the most buildings of any living American architect.

Our democracy is designed to speak truth to power.
I understand the bad rap that 3-D is getting because the conversions are crappy and because the films aren't designed for 3-D. It's a completely different medium.

I don't think all the cycle lanes in London have been designed as well as they should have been.
A lot of sports cars are just not designed for the larger gentleman.
