Hi ESSA community, here's a cool research study that is searching for (environmentally-minded) participants: "Hi everyone, We are looking for participants for our study, 'Understanding the exceptional contributor to environmental activity' that is being conducted by Dr. Robert Gifford at the Psychology Department at the University of Victoria.... We want to understand the psychology of individuals who are leaders in living a pro-environmental lifestyle. It is not about activism so much as it is about those people who are committed to reducing their footprint by living sustainably each day. If this describes you or someone you know, please get in touch at [email protected] to arrange a time slot. We will hold telephone or Zoom interviews that will last approximately 30 minutes, to hear about your environmental efforts. Thank you for all that you do - and helping us understand what defines individuals like yourself so that we might be able to promote such action in others. Looking forward to hearing from you! Megan Graham School of Environmental Studies, University of Victoria"
