I just came across a really great portfolio of socially responsible communication design, from Glasgow graduate Chris Thompson. Plenty of great work Chris, I can’t wait to see more.

“I wish I could report that it [graphic design] was doing its bit. Trouble is, tap “sustainable graphic design” into Google and you get a thousand suggested links. But, tap “Helvetica Movie” in, and guess what, you get fifteen thousand. So in cyberspace at least, that makes people 15 times as interested in a move about typeface than how to design responsibly. Great.”
