Do you have at least one child (of any age)? Take this survey - £150 voucher to be won
Here at GNHQ, we'd like to learn what sustainability means to you and to hear your opinions on how the brands you interact with meet your environmental expectations.
The survey is open to all GNers with at least 1 child.
I was doing well. Got to question 23, about use of a list of products. There was no 'Do not use' or n/a column. For example I re-use bottles, but rarely use them because I do not carry bottles of water around with me. I do not ever wrap sandwiches or use any kind of wrap. Never buy straws or use travel cutlery or wipes of any kind, menstruation is way back in history. HQ, Help!
I think the people who put these things together do not generally do it well. I wish they would employ a specialist to do it. I was also stumped by the inadequacies of the questions Monica. Even the ones that say "would you be more likely to buy x if the packaging was y" were poorly worded.
Also, it's ridiculous to ask if you'd buy a product just by knowing how much they gave to an environmental project for example. You would need to compare it with others. What if it was 0.005%?
Anyway. It's done. Not sure the evidence gathered will be correct though.
Completed, but would like to know what a ‘Gransetter’ is (initial blurb) - your proof editor should have picked this up.
Got a bit fed up with the questions, and possible answers. Lots didn’t apply to ‘women of a certain age’. Future questionnaires should be more relevant.
Done. Took me about 15 minutes. I agree that n/a would be a good option on some questions. Also, I’ve been green aware for many decades. In the section on which changes I’ve made in the last 2 years I was frustrated as I couldn’t explain all the changes I’d made way earlier than that.
Done, but I agree with everyone else, many of the questions were poorly worded, didn't have n/a as an alternative, didn't take into account that some of us have been environmentally aware for a long time, etc.
