The re issue of the EPA Graphics Manual comes at an appropriate time where we see climate change become more of a paramount issue. The Environmental Protection Agency was set up in 1970 under President Nixon to help research, monitor and limit environmental damage. The agency had a broad reach and several different departments but struggled to unify their message, because of a non-standartised design and communication strategy.
The EPA Graphics Manual is an example of
how to represent an environmentally conscious organisation which will be beneficial in understanding how to effectively communicate environmental information to the reader. It is designed with clarity and legibility above all, creating an honest form of design that has no personality to sway peoples opinions. It functions as a communicator of the message.
