Devin MacDonald contacted the city of Ann Arbor with an idea concerning his Senior Project for the University of Michigan School of Art & Design. He wanted to gather all of the sustainability information that was scattered across many forms and mediums into a single piece. The city liked the project and provided the necessary funding to print 10,000 copies and is arranging for full distribution in the fall of 2009.
