Task 5 : Video Reflections - part 5 (week8)

my major take home message for this week was from Annie Leonards's 5 steps of the linear system, I notist that all products human manufacted have bad influence to the environment.
As resources and materials are very important for our design process, we should be carefull when we chossing materials, think about our environment.
