It shaped many of the students.

I love the metaphorical analysis of comfort. From the beginning, no one would imagine it would intersect with climate change crisis. I believe write-ups like this are simple and interesting and could generate public interest, an initial process of mitigating climate change.

This essay by architectural historian Daniel Barber is pretty amazing, on designing against comfort and for discomfort. Can’t wait for this[…]

One factor could be that they have devised a way to adapt to the system, and “intervention” would imply abandoning that survival mechanism and beginning the search for…
