Every day we shape our planet's future when we make small life decisions - what we buy, what we eat, how we travel. The future of the planet is in our hands; the future is man-made. And we are all "Futuremakers".
If we choose to live sustainably, we can assure a future for all living things. And we can have some fun doing it too!
The Future is man made site is a place where you can share ideas with other Futuremakers so that we can live more sustainably.
