  • Check out our work on human-centered sustainable design from the Luce video: “The University of California Berkeley Engineering and Business for Sustainability (EBS) Certificate Program brings sustainability into product design and development in a variety of ways, from surfboards to housing. Exemplifying interdisciplinary creativity and consequence, faculty, students, and their partners in various communities show the power of innovative thinking about sustainability.” Two of our sustainable design projects are highlighted: Culturally-Sensitive Sustainable Housing with the Pinoleville Pomo Nation and  Sustainable Surfing.
