The bubble of Earth Day: Structure on Union Sq, 5th ave, designed by Yukihisa Isobe was an inflated air structure(100m length, 90m width, 30m height) sponsored by Earth People’s of Park, a New York commune concerned with eco-technology. The coordinator of New York’s Earth Day was Environmental Action Coalition, a recently formed group responsible for involving nearly 200 environmental groups in the city.
