Problem Statement:

The consumption habits of a growing population worldwide has generated high levels of environmental pollution, GHG emissions, excessive energy consumption, depletion and destruction of natural resources, planned and perceived obsolescence, linear economy, which all contribute to global warming.

 

Target Group:

People of all ages, with geographic, cultural and social diversity.

 

Proposed Solution:

The Hub has created an online tool called Sustentómetro (https://form.jotform.com/202031483556046), which allows a self-diagnosis of our individual consumption habits based on the measurement of our water and food consumption footprint, clothing consumption patterns, footprint associated with transport, among other indicators. The tool consists of a multiple-choice questionnaire which generates a personalized report with recommendations to improve our relationship with the planet.

 

Hub Activities:

• Ideation of axes to consider, questions for each axis and answers.


• Organization of talks and events to learn about interests (eg food, consumption, habits)


• Assembling the first version using an online form https://form.jotform.com/202031483556046


• Launch during the “truth in ten” activity


• Assembling the feedback for each answer, with info and tips.


• I send our first version to those who had responded.


• The process of generating our own website begins, which allows us to have unlimited responses and instant feedback (in progress)


• In parallel to the previous point, the investigation begins to also calculate the emissions of the people who respond. (In progress)


• Dissemination strategy and alliances. (Cross)


• Possible challenge strategy

 

Short & Long-Term Goals/Results:

The Hub's desired impact is to:

• Educate in the construction of sustainable habits.


• Using a self-diagnostic tool, assess the sustainability and impact of individual habits.


• Help identify the impacts on the environment of the decisions we make daily.


• Help Build new and better individual habits.


• Promote responsible and conscious consumption.


• 500 people who answer the sustentometer until the end of the year. 50% of the city of Rosario

 

Available Metrics:

How many respondents have completed the questionnaire until the end? How many persons have changed their consumption habits as a consequence ?

Collaborators:

Govt of the province of Sta Fe.

We plan to work with other hubs
