I sent in the four short videos below that were shot at various times while surfing. Learn how you can reduce your water waste at Surfrider and help preserve such a valuable and limited resource. Also, please take a moment and learn how to reduce sewage runoff and take simple steps to stop polluting our oceans and waterways.

Stopped by SFMoMA to take some photos of the Dieter Rams exhibit before it ends on Monday.

LESS AND MORE – The Design Ethos of Dieter Rams
Widely regarded as one of the most influential industrial designers of our time, Dieter Rams produced iconic works and innovative ideas (in particular his advocacy for “less but better” design) that have proved seminal for our contemporary design culture. For more than 40 years, Rams was the lead designer for the German household appliance company Braun. He has also been the active designer for German furniture company Vitsœ since his start there in 1959. This exhibition includes more than 200 models and objects by Rams and his team, as well as contemporary designs influenced by his Ten Principles of Good Design, such as Apple computers.
