The Upcycle: Beyond Sustainability--Designing for Abundance by William McDonough

3.0

Didn't love how it was written, with lots of light humor and roundabout stories to get to points, but still interesting ideas on how to think about reusing things and making things better. They have an optimistic view on how we can have what we want if we build things the right way and design them to be 'upcycled'. It got me outside traditional thinking on simply replacing or limiting consumption and instead thinking about how things should be designed from scratch to be reused, optimized, and not wasted. Worth the quick read if you are interested in the topic.
