Hello. I'm new to all this!

Hello everyone,

I'm Robin. I have been a fan of Organic Linker for a while now, but never actually joined the forum. I have never joined a forum before, so thought this would be a good place to start and talk to like minded people.

Also, whilst I am saying hello, I would like to see if I could get some feedback about recycling from anyone in the UK. I am passionate about keeping waste out of landfill and so as part of my university final year studies I have been investigating ways that we can encourage more people to recycle. I have a short questionnaire online at

<snip>

I would really appreciate it if anybody could spare a few minutes to answer some multiple choice questions about how they currently recycle, please. It is available online until Wednesday 15th April 2009.

(It does not ask for any contact details and respondents are not traceable - It is your responses that I am interested in. Hopefully at the end of my research I can use the results to make a difference to recycling here in the UK).

Thank you to anyone who completes it. I'm sorry for the long post, I will practice shortening messages for future use of the forum!

Robin :)

Hello Robin and welcome. well done for biting the bullet and joining in. I hope that you are having a great Easter.
I have just filled out your questionnaire. Good luck with your project.

Thank you ever so much for filling in the questionnaire.

I had a look at your website. It looks very good, I had no idea so many organic products were available. I will definitely look further into how I can change what I use at home. Just goes to show that once you provide clear information on options available and increase people's awareness, it can actually change what people do! Or at least maybe those that consider their effect on the environment - hopefully I will find that out.

Happy Easter!

Welcome to the forums Robin,

I deleted your repeat post in the other section and the url here as it looks like spam and may attract others. Users can get to your survey from your profile :)
