Committed to addressing the climate and biodiversity emergency,
London’s Central Saint Martins has pledged their commitment to creative
ecology.
The renowned art and design school strongly believes that the world is
shaped through creative action. A statement on their website vowed, “our
relationship with the planet’s resources calls for urgent and lasting
change. If the global population reaches 9.6 billion by 2050, the
equivalent of almost three planets will be required to sustain current
lifestyles. Artists and designers are uniquely placed to meet these
challenges. All forms of creative practice combine the ability to imagine
new futures with the means to deliver them. Our work isn’t defined simply
by what we produce, but what comes before and after – how those things are
made and how they are used.”
