The study attempts to prove the internal validity between the two variables and a regression model was created to show how the variables reacted with one another. The dependent variable: concern for the environment, was chosen based on an analysis of the overall survey. The question was worded in a way respondents could answer without questioning or second-guessing their answers. Through my predictions, having this question as the dependent variable effects the outcome of the independent variable: rate of recycling, the most. The independent was chosen based off my research and literature review in which the hypothesis states those who recycle are more concerned with the environment.
Hynes also concludes that an altruistic, bridled, “green” or spiritual quest toward consuming less may only be a small part of the answer. Hynes goes on to say that as consumers, we must appraise our “ecological footprint” which includes government responsibility as well as genuine concern from the general public. On an individual level, it would include a more conscientious and self-aware approach to consumerism. !

IMPACT ON CANADAIN BUSINESSES What kind of an impact will the cap and trade system have on business? Is it good or bad for business? In the simplest terms, cap and trade is a market-based solution to an environmental problem. The government puts a cap on pollution (greenhouse gas emissions in this case) and allows businesses to figure out the most cost-effective way of keeping their combined pollution under the cap. However, within this broad framework, many details need to be worked out, and the costs and benefits to businesses will depend on how the government tackles these finer points (Horne, 2011).
The Buy Nothing Day is just a way for environmentalists to voice their theories about how to fix the environment. Consumerism is well on its way to improve the life of humankind everywhere, while making sure to take the environment along for the

This review first traces the development of participatory approaches in different disciplinary and geographical contexts, and reviews typologies that can be used to categorise and select participatory methods. It then reviews evidence for normative and pragmatic benefits of participation, and evaluates limitations and drawbacks. Although few of the claims that are made have been tested, there is evidence that stakeholder participation can enhance the quality of environmental decisions by considering more comprehensive information inputs. However, the quality of decisions made through stakeholder participation is strongly dependant on the nature of the process leading to them. Eight features of best practice participation are then identified from a Grounded Theory Analysis of the literature.
