WHAT CAN
DESIGN DO FOR A
SUSTAINABLE FUTURE?
Over the past 50 years, weather-related disasters, such as typhoons, hurricanes, and torrential rains, have increased fivefold, while climate change has led to coral bleaching and wildfires, causing significant biodiversity loss. Addressing the climate crisis requires tackling various causes, but the most measurable and impactful approach is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, particularly CO₂. Decarbonization is therefore essential for achieving a sustainable planet.
Since the 2015 Paris Agreement, which aims to limit global temperature rise to within 1.5°C compared to pre-industrial levels, efforts to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions have accelerated worldwide. However, the pace of action remains critically slow. According to the latest report by the World Meteorological Organization, there is a 66% probability that the 1.5°C threshold will be exceeded by 2027. If current trends continue, global average temperatures are projected to rise by approximately 4.5°C by 2100. Such rapid warming is expected to increase the frequency and severity of weather-related disasters, accelerate the spread of infectious diseases, and hasten the depletion of natural resources, posing a complex and multifaceted threat to the future of human life. For the survival of humanity itself, NOSIGNER remains committed to providing design solutions that contribute to a sustainable future.
