social and environmental sustainability fits with interaction
design."

Welcome, Valerie! So far I like everything I've read about the
Designer's Accord. As an interaction designer yourself, how about a
little jump-start? Where do you see the fit with interaction design?
And thanks for asking the tough question right up front.

I wrote a convoluted response and scrapped it. No need to thank me.
Had to be done to get at the meat of it.

I'll put it this way, as a start: What we think, and how we think,
is to a great extent what we become. If we engage constantly in very
tedious and complex and frustrating interactions, we will become that
kind of person. If we instead function simply, transparently and
efficiently, we will be imbued with those qualities as individuals
and as a society.

I know which I prefer, and I think I know which will provide the
greatest longterm benefit to humanity. What do you think?
