I think that the authors just hate on the Industrial Revolution to much. These designers did not know how their products would affect the environment. That was not the first thing on their mind, but more of speed and amount of products they could produce. Now, designers have more of an idea of how sensitive our environment really is. I believe that they are trying harder, but agree with the second chapter of how being "less bad" is not really good. The people are still more focused on the product rather than the environment, but I think that they are on the road to change. In the third chapter they go on to say how they need to create new designs rather than improving environmentally hazardous designs, which I completely agree with.
