Welcome to the blog of KCAD Sustainability Resources!
Our aim is to connect our communities to interesting and useful resources with regards to sustainability and the triple bottom line. We hope to be a valuable resource for businesses, students, designers and artists everywhere.
Have something to share? We would love to hear your own sustainability experiences. If you are interested in sharing your own sustainability story, feel free to let us know in the comments.
KCAD Digital Media students designed an interactive app that educates middle school students about the realities of climate change. They wanted to inform these students about global warming issues in a way that was understandable and relatable.
The student design team included Ed Kindsvater, Brenda Snell, Tony Ellison, Casey Davis, and Pierre Babbitt, who worked with students from Kenowa Hills Middle School to make this possible.
You can read more about the app at the KCAD website's blog: http://www.kcad.edu/blog/theres-an-app-for-that/
