Task • Working in pairs/groups and using the following slides and their titles, you are going to research and complete each of the tasks • Definitions and detailed explanations are required supported by examples • Add a bibliography to your slide show and give sources for any images used in the slide show
Green Design • Define
Renewable Resources • Define
Non-renewable Resources • Define
Reasons for Green Design • Outline the reasons for green design • Consider consumer pressure and legislation
“Take back” legislation • Define and examine the impact on designers and manufacturers
People’s Attitude to Green Issues • Eco-warriors • Eco-champions • Eco-fans • Eco-phobes • Define and explain the above
Eco-Footprint • Define and examine your own eco-footprint
Life Cycle Analysis • Define, by using two of the following Search Engines Yahoo, Ask, Dogpile, Wikipedia, Alta Vista, Excite, Google, Lycos, Windows Live • List with the links the top 10 results • Look at each site and list products mentioned in the sites as examples • Use images and reference correctly all sources used
Eco Labelling • Describe the reasons for the introduction of eco-labelling • Give six examples of eco-labelling
Eco-Labelling Schemes • Below are 4 examples of eco-labelling schemes. Select 2 schemes and compare the objectives of the schemes www.environment.gov.au/settlements/industry/corporate/labelling www.defra.gov.uk/environment/consumerprod/ecolabel www.hkfep.com www.greenseal.org
