Autodesk.com, a software solutions and design company for engineers and designers, set up this video as a quick tutorial on whole systems and lifecycle thinking design for their sustainability workshop series. While the video is geared towards students in engineering and design, the out-of-the box method of thinking can be beneficial for almost anyone looking at a complex sustainability (or business, or CSR) problem, and is a great reminder that using a methodical, full-view approach to a problem can often present us with unique solutions in greater numbers.

An impressive example and presentation. I’ll be using this in a graduate course in principles of sustainability.
