Oh… global warming can be so frightful

But being optimistic is delightful

A large carbon footprint has to go

Don’t tiptoe! Let it show! Let it flow!

It doesn’t show signs of stopping

So we all must get on board and hopping

Spread the word, lend a hand, do your part

Show what you know! Heave ho! Don’t forego!

When we finally say good night

How we’ll see we have truly transformed!

If we all really do it right

Our children will benefit from our reform.

13 can be our lucky number

The year we wake from our slumber

And truly love our planet earth so

This we can’t blow! Stay aglow! Way to go!

Let it show! Let it grow! Stay aglow! 

Wishing you a green and glowing new year.

May your generosity and spirit bring you

great joy, peace and prosperity in 2013.

As designers, we understand that design has the inherent power to transform our behaviors and to shape our culture. It is why we have both a responsibility and a tremendous opportunity to use that power to ignite change and to communicate the importance of sustainability to individuals, corporations, society, the environment and ourselves. The AIGA (Re)designAwards honor sustainable design solutions and the designers, educators and students throughout the world that use their creative influence to create a positive impact on our environment and society. The AIGA (Re)designAwards competition recognizes design that challenges us to rethink the world and our choices. It is based on our fundamental belief that through better design we can build a better a planet.

Similar to a White Elephant gift exchange game, these glistening gems or irreverent and impractical creations are gift wrapped without a hint of who the creator might have been. This EDG traditional game begins with everyone drawing a number. Then each number is sequentially called. Mystery and surprise await the participants as each ornament is selected and opened, it’s maker then revealed. It’s always fun to give and receive, but sometimes one must risk retaliation back at the office to get their hands on one of the highly coveted masterpieces. Expletives are exchanged and tempers flare as these works of art are often stolen from participants, not once, but twice, before they become safe. In the end, however, huge smiles always adorn each player when the game is finished.

Over the years we’ve seen it all! A bejeweled ornament so sweet Hallmark would be proud, a drunken Santa in a snow globe, a Rubik’s Cube like never before or this year’s, irresistible, Rudolf made from recyclable artifacts in a kitchen junk drawer. Best of all, whether players head home with a sport sock snowman or a festive flying toilet everyone has a blast just playing the game!
