Watch our talk about design and the anthropocene live from Dutch Design Week 2018
Dezeen editor-in-chief Marcus Fairs speaks to an expert panel about how designers can shape the anthropocene to prevent global catastrophe in our latest Good Design for a Bad World talk. Watch it live from 3pm UK time.
The livestream has now ended, but the talk can still be watched in full above.
As Fairs wrote on Dezeen earlier this week, we are entering a new geological era in which human activity is a dominant influence on earth's geology and environment. The name scientists propose for this phenomenon is the anthropocene.
It's easy to believe we are heading towards catastrophe ? yet it also means we have the power to redesign our planet. How can designers shape the anthropocene era" How can they help us avoid disaster" What could the anthropocene earth look like" Fairs asks these questions to artist Jalila Essaidi, designer Pirjo Haikola, geologist Sjoerd Kluiving and writer Rab Messina in the panel discussion at Dutch Design Week 2018 in Eindhoven.
The talk is a special edition of Dezeen's Good Design for a Bad World series exploring how design can solve some of the biggest problems facing the world.
Good Design for a Bad World launched at Dutch Design Week last year with a series of discussions exploring climate change, refugees, terrorism, pollution and politics, which we livestreamed and published at: www.dezeen.com/gooddesignforabadworld.
