Critical Debates in Design ( task four )















Which organization/companies do you think have a good CSR policy and why?
Honeybees are disappearing at a rapid speed, which was bad news for the global food chain. Haagen-Dazs create a website to raise awareness of the issue: “Honey bees are responsible for pollinating one-third of people’ foods, example ice creams, sorbets, frozen yogurt and bars.”
Haagen-Dazs invest a part of income in the research of honeybee. What is more, it holds a society activity about the Help Honey Bees, and raising $7,000 in two days.

Eco-friendly

A large number of paper water was a threat to environment. And designers should to design something to tackle it.



Kenyahara – a very outstanding Japanese designer and this is his design project. He makes the shape of toilet paper core to square, which just spend a bit piece of paper when people use it.
