Re: Paper Reduction and Recycling Techniques
2009-10-13 19:07:11 UTC
Hello Melissa,
In our office in Brisbane, Australia, everyone has under their desk a small box supplied by Visy Recycling for all paper and cardboard waste. You do not have to move to add your paper to the recycling bin. A great service provided by a company that is based on recycling - http://www.visy.com.au/
We did some mini training sessions to make sure everyone in the office knew how to set double side print as the default. One side print waste paper is often stapled to form notepads.

Research regarding Attitudes/Perceptions to Waterway Health
2009-01-22 14:33:07 UTC
Hello All,
I am about to commission some research into people's attitudes / perceptions to waterway health in South East Queensland (SEQ). This includes a literature review to find what research in this area is already out there and what behaviour change programs have been carried out to improve / maintain waterway health. To be followed by a community social survey and focus groups with water stakeholders in SEQ so we have some baseline data and qualitative information to develop and evaluate future CBSM programs.
It would be great to know who has already carried out these activities and any help in finding existing research would be great (already seen some on this site). Cheers
