Hello Guys,
First of all, happy new year! My name is Nayeli. I am 25 years old and I am attending a masters degree at the University of Munich (Germany), called Master of Consumer Science. My specialization in this master is Sustainable Consumption. For the moment I am attending a course which aims to get to know and study diverse ‘sustainable online communities’ .
When I had to decide which community to join and integrate into my small research, I did not think twice about it and went for Dothegreenthing :), which I already knew. I will be holding a presentation on the 19th January of the present year about our community , and would be really glad if you guys could help me with your cooperation and support in order to do a good job. It is not only in my interest for a good grade ;), but also in our interest as the Dothegreenthing-community (feedback possibilities and discussions) and as sustainable consumers or at least, consumers with sustainable intentions. Any answer, or information you guys give to me will remain anonymous and I will post the final version of the presentation of course, so you guys can give me feedback.
There are some questions that seem to me interesting for our community to answer:

1. Why did you guys decide to join a sustainable online community? What is the difference in being part or not of such a community?

2. Why Dothegreenthing and not another community? What offers Dothegreenthing to you that other communities do not?

3. Do you feel more attached (passion for) to the Dothegreenthing-Community or rather to ecological (green) activities/behavior? Or to both?

4. What motivates you guys to behave and consume sustainably: Saving money, social responsibility, future generations, technological or modern trends,…?

5.Do you guys besides trying to do the “seven things that lead to a greener life” do other more robust activities that convey a sustainable development (example Green Investments: hybrid cars, solar energy cells, construction of ‘green houses’ … or Political Activities?)
If not, would you do it if you had the money or the opportunity?

6. Do you guys think that the responsibility to develop a greener world is in our hands as consumers or in the superior (political) authorities?

Well guys, these are some of the points that I would like to discuss during my seminar. I hope you find 5 minutes to give me your opinions and point of views. You guys may answer anywhere you want in Dothegreenthing or if you prefer you may contact me via email : chavita@gmx.net
Hope to read a lot of answers and posts! :)
Nayeli
