How did Fuller approach solving global problems?
My approach was to consider humanity and Earth as an integrated system, a 'Spaceship Earth.' I believed in looking at the whole, the interconnectedness of all phenomena, rather than isolated parts. By identifying fundamental principles of nature and applying them to design, we could create solutions that were inherently efficient, sustainable, and beneficial to all life, moving beyond fragmented, short-sighted approaches.
