Abstract(s)
Durante as últimas décadas, os consumidores começaram a perceber os efeitos ambientais que algumas das suas escolhas diárias provocam e tentam fazer algo para ajudarem a melhorar o ambiente.
Os designers têm percebido a importância e influência que o design tem para responder a essa necessidade ambiental dos consumidores criando objectos que não prejudiquem o ambiente. Nesse sentido, o Design Ecológico apresenta-se como uma oportunidade para reduzir o impacto ambiental dos produtos ao mesmo tempo que oferece qualidades estéticas, preocupando-se com essa redução desde a escolha dos materiais até ao final da vida de um produto. Apesar das várias iniciativas de que todos temos conhecimento, são poucos os estudos desenvolvidos e publicados a nível
Nacional. São vários os designers e empresas que se preocupam em criar produtos “amigos do ambiente”. Nesse sentido, pretende-se com esta investigação dar a conhecer algumas das iniciativas que são tomadas e os seus efeitos perante a sociedade e o ambiente.
