Viridian Design Movement

The Viridian Design Movement seeks to influence designers toward a more environmentally friendly ascetic. Run by Pope-Emperor Bruce Sterling, the movement is largely based online at its web site and the Viridian Mailing List, although the movement makes annual appearances at the Renewable Power Roundup in Texas. The movement also holds contests to design imaginary products or images, but studiously avoids the extra work of actually producing them.

The Greening Earth Society is the arch-enemy of the Viridian movement. The Viridian movement also has a predetermined and fixed expiration date.
