Cradle to Cradle

The overall message I got after reading this book was to respect nature. Nature was here before humans and the industrial revolution and therefore we can learn a lot from nature. Before reading this book, I used to just listen to my ipod and look down as I was walking to my classes. Now I am definitely more aware of my surroundings and try to pay attention to certain natural details. We really are wasteful when it comes to creating products and most of these products are hazardous. I know it isn't something that can happen over night but I really wish we could change how we design things and copycat nature. I love the book's analogy of the cherry tree. That process is what our products need to resemble unless we want to end up in a world like Wall-e did.
