What is Sustainability?
Making environmental commitments shape real design decisions, with someone owning the trade-offs.
What you learn
Reduce the product’s biggest environmental impact through the choices people use every day.
When it helps
you know a product’s main environmental impacts and need to change the design choices that create them.
Use it at work
- Measure where the product’s biggest impacts are.
- Name the design decisions that drive them.
- Change the default to the lower-impact option.
- Track the impact, and name who owns it.
Your output
Pick your team’s environmental commitment. Name one product decision it changes this quarter, and make that change.
Watch for
Making environmental promises that never affect product choices.
