[papercreters] RESEARCH on Papercrete- from Cardiff UK



This is an email from  Joana, she NEEDS to hear from you active and knowledgeable Papercreters-- ( like Spaceman, Judith Williams and others here!

Please contact her by email if you have something to say, agree to be interviewed.  

The cement industry may actually be a great supporter of 'crete as it shows a "positive' use of cement/concrete material in small amounts .

Her request:

Malato, Joana <jmalato@cardiffmet.ac.uk>

Dear Charmaine,

 

I am undertaking a PhD at Cardiff Metropolitan University in Sustainability Marketing and the cement industry. As you may be aware, there is a huge drive supported by government legislation to reduce the construction industry's carbon emissions and I am particularly looking at the barriers and drivers that influence a more sustainable behaviour in the industry.
 
I came across Papercrete through Brian Murphy from Green Spec, and is a great example of alternative construction materials and methods which ultimately are more sustainable. It is critically important to capture your views on this topic and to understand from your perspective the key drivers and barriers to a more sustainable industry.
 [ this means YOU GUYS..I am retired now- Charmaine]
It would be highly appreciated if we could arrange a short interview at a time and place at your convenience. In advance I deeply appreciate your time and interest.
 
I assure you that all information gathered will be kept entirely confidential and participants' anonymity will be respected at all times with methods advised by the university being strictly adhered to.
 
I also wish to offer to provide you a copy of an executive summary of my thesis when it is completed and defended at Cardiff Metropolitan University.
 
I look forward to hearing from you.
 
Kind Regards

--
Charmaine
