Every year on #April #22, #Earth #Day marks the #anniversary of the #birth of the modern #environmental #movement in 1970. We are honoring Earth Day with the #futurist #Buckminster #Fuller (1895-1983), an American #architect, #systems #theorist, #author, #designer, #inventor and #philosopher. Fuller believed human societies would soon rely mainly on #renewable #sources of #energy, such as #solar- and #wind-derived #electricity.

Fuller developed numerous inventions, mainly architectural designs, and popularized the widely known #geodesic #dome; #carbon #molecules known as fullerenes were later named by scientists for their structural and mathematical resemblance to geodesic #spheres.
