How to rethink environmental folklore
Why you should listen?
Leyla Acaroglu breaks through our deeply
entrenched environmental folklore in order to
reveal the true impact of the products and
materials we use every day. A designer and
consultant, Acaroglu encourages both companies
and individuals to look at the full life cycle of the
things they create and use in order to understand
their net effect on the environment. At Eco
Innovators, an ecologically-minded Australian
design studio, Acaroglu’s team makes award-
winning designs and projects that tap into a sense
of play in order to educate. From animations
explaining the lifecycle of a cell phone to
bookshelves made from construction scrap wood
to workshops that help rebuild and repurpose
broken everyday items, the goal is building savvy,
science-based sustainability practices.
Most of us want to do the right thing when it
comes to the environment. But things aren’t
as simple as opting for the paper bag, says
sustainability strategist Leyla Acaroglu. A bold
call for us to let go of tightly-held green myths
and think bigger in order to create systems
and products that ease strain on the planet.
