Unfork the Earth
Campaign, Website, Product
Plastic pollution is no news but how can we help reduce plastic waste in our everyday life? Carrying and using reusable utensils is one small action that can be impactful. Additionally, refuse plastic cutlery for takeout and food delivery when you don’t need them. Let’s all Unfork the Earth and make a change!

"A Thing I Have Learned in My Life" is a project for Stefan Sagmeister's design class at SVA MFAD program. My sentence is "Dreaming without Action is Pointless. I will Act Now!" By displaying my design in Grand Central Terminal, the moving crowd contrasts well with the stillness of the cutout.
