I believe

Though she loves solitude, she believes that she must not get too caught up in that or she will miss things around her and become detached with the world, and hurt those around her, not to mention she can miss out on huge things that affect her.

Sustainability visits


1. What is your name and your role here at the farmers market?

Carey Atig

2. Why do you choose to shop here/garden here/support this CSA?

The food here is just great, and it is not too far from my home. It is well worth it to wait until Thursday to do some of my shopping.

3. When did you first start coming here?

A few years ago.

4. Do you garden at home? Why or why not?

I don't, I live in an apartment, so I don't have the room to garden, I did try it anyway though, and lets just say I do not have a green thumb.

5. How did you find out about this place?

I saw signs about it while driving around in the area, and decided to stop by after looking it up one night, and decided it would be interesting to check out, so here I am!

6. What would be your advice to get others to do what you do?

It's not hard and is easy to pick up! Looking up a few guides for gardeneing never hurts and the food at the farmer's market is great and worth trying.

Ecologic intelligence


Though I have an even better picture at the bottom, I added this one just to be safe.


Ways the world is already becoming better!

1. What is ecological intelligence? Ecological intelligence is when instead of looking at just the last phase of production for what products they used, looking at the whole thing along the way to see if it is truly good for the environment before you just consider it "green".
2. This connects to the essential question of why people do not live more sustainably. When going to buy a product, one will generally look for something "green" but in reality it can be just as bad or worse then something that is not green. When people shop they are not sure to trust what it says or not, because it is not always telling the truth.
3. I generally give a lot of thought when buying something even if it says that it is green. I try not to buy too much and keep it to a minimum. I do try to figure out where everything came from when I can, though that is not always possible. I do feel that is our responsibility to know what we are buying before we go out and buy it. Some companies should not be allowed to say that they are green, and should have more warnings on the packaging of where things come from.

Ad campain planning

1. Present proposed motto

Eat lean go green.

2. Present proposed logo



3. Present theme/direction for campaign
a. (based on findings in your research)

Either trying to educate people or make them feel guilty.

4. Present ideas on how you will create the Video PSA and what you
will need to accomplish it.
a. Viral video?
b. Filmed with iPhones? Camera phones?

Filmed with a digital camera and showing part of the problem then showing solutions.

5. Find two modern advertisements that resemble or inspire your group
for your campaign and link them on your DP/blog as models.

This ad is using a bit of danger/threat to their ad which is pretty interesting and saying how eating meat can be deadly.

This one is pretty interesting, making it so the chicken is speaking itself telling you not to eat it and adding to the guilt idea.

List your group roles here for this portion of the project
(who will focus on what?)

Interview results



1. What struck you about the data?
2. Were you surprised by any of the results? How so?
3. What were your expectations? Were these met or not?
4. Based on your findings, what type of ad campaign will you run? Will you being to educate people? Encourage or coerce people? Embarrass people? What is your angle?

1. I was surprised by how few people were vegetarians and how much they seemed to care. Many of the people we interviewed knew the bad side of meat, but preferred to eat meat. The polls were shifted in a different direction then I would of thought, and had a few different questions where the results for both sides were pretty even.
2. It seemed many people did not think that eating vegetarian would make much of a difference, or just did not know. I would have though more people would know about the meat vs. vegetables for sustainability with production and treating.
3. I was expecting more people to know, but there is nothing much I can do about that until we begin our ad campaign.
4. I think from our results we should either try to educate or scare people. If we scare people we could be talking about animal cruelty with some of the meat production, or just basic education because many people did not know anything about our subject.
