Naturally Earth Friendly

Appliances Online is conducting a survey in an attempt to discover whether the larger retail chains are being as helpful as they can be regarding the eco-friendly information they share with customers. The survey goes live today and will run for two weeks until Wednesday, May 23, 2012. You can take the survey here.

Some of the questions Appliances Online hopes to answer in the survey include:

• Do people really understand energy symbols?
• Do people feel carbon offsetting is a worthwhile endeavour?
• Do people focus too much on new products and forget about the environmental impact of getting rid of the old ones?

Feel free to share this survey with your friends and family. The more results the better we can understand what needs to be improved in keeping customers informed and aware of their buying decisions.

Should Large Retailers Be Better At Being Green?

At Appliances Online we are conducting a survey to find out whether large retailers can be more helpful with the eco information they give to consumers.

Do people really understand energy symbols? Do they feel carbon offsetting is a worthwhile endeavour? Do we focus too much on the new products and forget the environmental impact of disposing of our old ones?

How we present this information is based only on what we know. But how can we be sure that’s what customers want to know? We want the public to tell us what retailers should be doing better.

Anyone taking part in the survey will be able fill in a free text box. This will give them an opportunity to tell us exactly what they want. And we will listen. Every single entry will be read and recorded.

We are asking for your help to spread the word of this survey by promoting it on your website, blog, twitter, Facebook, anywhere you can.  And in return we will share the results with you.  We hope this survey will be an opportunity to really find out the environmental issues that matter most to consumers on a national and global scale.

We are not just focusing on our customers; we are opening this survey up globally. Our customer’s have an opinion that deserves to be heard, but others across the world will have a valid contribution too. Their voice can also have an impact on our retail and how we think about the Eco issue.

The survey will be hosted at http://www.appliancesonline.co.uk/community/projects/greensurvey  on Wednesday 23rd May for two weeks.
