Human impact on the planet is forcing Sweden to relocate the town of Kiruna. The urban planners and architects behind the project say the biggest challenge isn't moving the buildings, it's bringing the community with them. More about Biggest challenge of relocating Swedish town Kiruna is "moving the minds of citizens"
We've woken up to the reality of the anthropocene era and realised the catastrophic damage we've inflicted on the planet. Now we must develop a new form of architecture that can adapt to major environmental changes, says Darran Anderson. More about "As environmental catastrophe unfolds, we need architecture that is more than just green"
Australian design studio Jack and Huei has proposed Bleached Coral as the colour of the year for 2020, claiming that Pantone's shade for this year Living Coral fails to highlight the ongoing destruction of coral reefs. More about Australian designers suggest Bleached Coral to follow Pantone's "tone deaf" colour of the year
Designers need to think of bigger, more ambitious solutions to the world's problems, according to speakers at Dezeen's talk about design in the anthropocene era during Dutch Design Week. More about "More science fiction" needed to save planet earth, say designers at Dezeen talk
This chair raised on blocks aims to tackle the "stupidity of the unawareness of the upcoming disaster" of climate change for countries where water levels could threaten everyday life. More about The Urge To Sit Dry is a chair by Boris Maas that rises with the sea level

Boston is moving ahead with plans to address rising sea levels predicted as a result of climate change, using designs by New York firm SCAPE. More about SCAPE contributes to Resilient Boston Harbor flood-protection project
If humans can't reduce greenhouse-gas emissions, can we design our way out of climate-change catastrophe? Last week's UN report shone a light on geoengineering, a discipline that proposes large-scale interventions to counteract global warming. So what ideas are geoengineers proposing? More about Five geoengineering solutions proposed to fight climate change
We are entering a new geological era: the anthropocene, in which human activity is a dominant influence on earth's geology and environment. At Dutch Design Week, a special edition of our Good Design for a Bad World series will ask if design can harness this phenomenon to prevent global catastrophe, writes Marcus Fairs. More about "Humans are clever. They can solve problems. There is hope"
The United Nations says we have 12 years to take action against climate change, to avoid global disaster. It's the greatest design challenge in history, says Nicolas Roope. More about "Let's start designing the future that gives us a future"
