About Me
- Jo
- The way infrastructure makes us act in particular ways is of fascination to me. I dream of a world where all of our standard housing, transport, workplaces, energy providers, water management etc, is all done in a sustainable manner, so without thinking about it, we all act in ways which impact the earth in a POSITIVE way.
