  • Towards Trash Free Waters: Quantifying Potential Aquatic Trash Recovery in the Hillsborough River Watershed
    Towards Trash Free Waters: Quantifying Potential Aquatic Trash Recovery in the Hillsborough River Watershed Prepared for Nestlé Waters North America October 27, 2015 Prepared by Timothy G. Townsend (Principal Investigator) Max J. Krause Sarah A. Gustitus Jeremy Toms University of Florida Gainesville, FL 32611 i Executive Summary Despite advances in solid waste management and increased awareness of the negative environmental consequences of pollution, littering is still common in the US. Littering can be the result of carelessness, accidents, or intentional actions, but the effect is the same. In recent years, concerned citizens have increased their attention to litter in the Hillsborough River Watershed (HRW). The University of Florida (UF) research team collaborated with local municipalities and non-government organizations (NGOs) to quantify and map the quantity of collected litter within the HRW. Because much of the storm water within the HRW drains into the Hillsborough River, all of the litter within the watershed has the potential to become aquatic trash (PAT). The PAT that was collected in roadside and park cleanups before it made its way into the Tampa Bay or the Gulf of Mexico (recovered PAT) was cataloged into a database and mapped using ESRI ArcGIS software. Concentrations of recovered PAT were reported as pounds per acre for 1,015 cleanup events at 168 unique sites within the HRW from 2008-2014, shown in Figure E1. Additionally, educational campaigns such as storm drain markings and field visits by the WaterVentures mobile lab were mapped to identify where residents could be expected to have increased awareness of the negative issues associated with littering.

  • Millennials: the Cultural Recycling Boom
    Consumer Insight Consumer Millennials: The Cultural Recycling Boom We explore the innovative brand- building strategies that companies are using to align themselves with WMagazine consumers' fondest memories. Analysis Millennial nostalgia is alive and well in 2017. From the public outcry in July that halted the planned discontinuation of Microsoft Paint to Drake sampling J.Lo's 1999 hit "If You Had My Love" for "Teenage Fever", nostalgia for the 90s and 00s is cropping up more frequently than ever – and taking new forms. Nostalgia has always been a popular marketing tool in times of uncertainty and anxiety. In 2015, we noted sentimental reboots and gaming re-releases. But with evermore advanced technology and growing consumer expectations, brands are extending the experience of nostalgia – going beyond "ephemeral commercial goods and fleeting media moments in our age of fast capitalism," according to Gary Cross, author of Consumed Nostalgia. In a time of accelerated social change, limited attention spans and financial strain for Millennials, we explore how brands are aligning themselves with consumers' fondest memories, and making nostalgia relevant, functional and omnipresent.
