MWA Spring Workshop May 2014 The Situation Going “green” Green Team Before we’re green Blue contamination Perception is reality
MWA Spring Workshop May 2014 The Hypotheses “Sort” more than a “green” problem Overcome blue barriers Colour differentiation helps sorting Decreases contamination The sooner the colour is introduced, the better the sorting
MWA Spring Workshop May 2014 The Methodology Pre- and post-audits Two weeks in between Two study groups, one control group “Counts” vs. weights
MWA Spring Workshop May 2014 The Buildings 10 buildings 2 small (<15 units) 4 medium (16-30 units) 4 large (>30 units) ~550 units
MWA Spring Workshop May 2014 The Study Groups
