The document outlines proposals to address sustainability issues in Bourj Hammoud related to plastic waste. It discusses the problems of plastic bag and cup usage and discarded car tires. It proposes ideas to reduce plastic bag use by promoting reusable textile bags and establishing public bag banks. Plastic cup usage would be reduced by serving coffee in ceramic cups and using paper cups for takeaway. Discarded car tires would be collected and given to artisans to make recycled public furniture. Community workshops and activities would promote awareness and find local solutions, such as establishing a unique recycling system for Bourj Hammoud to encourage proper waste sorting.

Starbucks’ mission has always been to “inspire and nurture the human spirit – one person, one cup, and one neighborhood at a time” (Shultz, 2011). Given its mission, Starbucks sees itself as an integral part of each community in which it is located. It is not surprising that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), which is the notion that a corporation should enhance society and be accountable for its actions that affect society (D’Amato, Henderson, & Florence, 2009), would play an important role in the Starbucks business model. Starbucks currently has programs that are focused on ethical sourcing of coffee beans, recycling, energy efficiency, water conservation, green building, climate change, and community outreach (Schultz, 2011). In all of these cases, Starbucks has made notable progress toward stated goals (Aston, 2012); however, while impressive progress has been made, one of the challenges that Starbucks has struggled to address is the volume of waste generated by paper beverage cups.

This single sheet (you may need to zoom in) tells the story of a project that led to a trial that showed an increase in the proportion of households sorting food waste for collection, by targeting communications only at the (approximately) 50% of households not currently doing so, despite the service having been available for eight years. The project was a collaboration between With The Grain and The Hunting Dynasty, commissioned by Bristol Waste.

20171107 plastic maker hubs overview for xe marketplace_for truusTruus Huisman
Plastic Maker Hubs aims at tackling the wicked and highly critical problem of plastic waste from the source. We believe the problem is rooted in miscalculated value: negative externalities are not priced in waste, waste pickers valuable work is not reflected in their income, and consumers do not have an opportunity to spend her money on a 'better' plastic. Our contribution to the solution is a series of small-scale hubs/workshops where waste-pickers convert plastic waste into a range of design products such as coasters, notebooks, wall clocks, furniture etc. These products embed principles of fair trade & circular economy, tapping into a huge global market of conscious consumers, both B2B and B2C. We aim at an holistic upliftment of the waste-pickers' communities & livelihoods, in terms of more income, dignified work and status.
The pressing need to shift our global economy to sustainable consumption represent one of the biggest opportunities of our time for disruptive innovation. All over the world, out of the box thinkers are bringing disruptive ideas to market in response. Here are few of our favorites, each of which represents a different disruptive idea that has the potential to dramatically shift the flow of funds in the markets in which they operate.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
