Thank you Michael for your response
Yes I would include both product and process, because whatever changes we can accomplish will always have a cause and an effect. The relation of nature and design has always been an important relationship. It would be hard to think their is no relationship. In a previous email I had spoke of creating echo parks as part of the learning process, maybe these parks should be connected to the design process through schools and access to individuals involved with the processes of nature and design. This exploration would not stop designers from paving their own way. We explore through our ideas and then attach our interest to many different types of design projects.

Reacting to your term of designed 'projects', just wondering does that include both 'product' and 'process'? Earlier in the list (on another issue raised), Michael Hohl wrote:
'There is no more "industrial design". It's dead. What we should be having is some kind of holistic "product development". It's process anyway now. We have enough "things" around our homes etc.'
So am asking what is your point of upon designed 'product' and 'process'? Do they address the same sustainability issues? Or are they different?
