This video inspires students to incorporate sustainability into their design projects. Topics include The Smart Car - this German car is designed for maximum economy of performance and space. The factory even recycles the body warmth of its workers; Freeplay Power - Freeplay's wind-up mechanism provides a sustainable alternative to batteries in flashlights and radios. Future products include lap tops and cell phones; the Remarkable Pencil - The height of recycling: one discarded plastic cup is recycled into one pencil.
