“Creating Sustainable Communities: Addressing Interconnected Human and Environmental Systems” Title: Promoting Sustainability in the Community: A Case Study on Human Behavior, Cultural Bias, and Actionable Steps for Improvement
Competencies
In this project, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following competencies:
Explain how human and environmental systems are interconnected
Explain how sustainable systems balance social, economic, and environmental needs
Analyze approaches to address a sustainability issue
Overview
Throughout this course, you have explored how sustainability can be considered in various contexts and within the three pillars of business, social justice, and environmental quality. In previous modules, you have explored these pillars, drafted parts that will be included in this project, and received feedback on that work. For your project, you will incorporate the knowledge gained and the feedback given on your drafts for one of the following scenarios and its related profile. You will also look at actionable steps that others have taken that could be looked at for your chosen group.
Scenario #1: Business
You were recently hired as Director of Sustainability at McBurrow Mining, a local mining company. In this role, you will be working to guide the Board of Directors to understand how policies, vision, and manufacturing processes relate to sustainability and environmental issues. Once they gain that understanding, they will want to see how this has worked in other companies facing similar issues. By reading the McBurrow Mining profile linked in the Supporting Materials section, you will learn about an example that highlights sustainability in action. In the template, you will describe some actionable steps the board could take for each pillar of sustainability.
Scenario #2: Social Justice
You live in a neighborhood with an active community organization. You and your neighbors are very concerned about inequity, as the city is spending money on improving road conditions in some areas, but not others. One of your neighbors asked you to join them in attending a Community Action Meeting to address these observations in the form of an informational campaign. By reading the Elm Glen city profile linked in the Supporting Materials section, you will learn about an example that highlights sustainability in action. In the template, you will describe some actionable steps the community group could take for each pillar of sustainability.
Scenario #3: Environmental Quality
You are a member of your college’s Environmental Science Quality Club. The group has decided they’d like to move forward with a campaign to help inform and educate the campus community on what environmental quality is, how it should look on campus, and what actionable steps the campus community could take to encourage environmental quality practices. By reading the Environmental Science Quality Club profile linked in the Supporting Materials section, you will learn about an example that highlights sustainability in action. In the template, you will describe some actionable steps the club could take for each pillar of sustainability.

Title: Increasing Conversions and Efficiency: A Proposal for Avada Furniture’s Marketing Strategy
Exam Content
Imagine that you are the director of marketing at Avada Furniture. Avada Furniture sells home furniture directly on their website. On the website, customers can browse the company’s furniture inventory by viewing product pages (pages that feature an individual product) and category pages (pages that feature a number of products grouped by type). In addition to their home page, Avada Furniture has a promotions page that features special temporary sales prices.
Avada Furniture uses three primary strategies to attract traffic to their site:
Search Engine Optimization strategies
Advertisements on platforms such as Google, TikTok, and Snapchat
An affiliate program that pays influencers to send traffic to their site (If that traffic makes a purchase, the influencer receives a percentage of the overall purchase.)
The VP of marketing has extra budget to invest in marketing with the goal of increasing total conversions, improving marketing efficiency, and decreasing the total cost per lead.
Review the Traffic and Performance Data for Aveda Furniture’s Website PowerPoint presentation. (attached)
Prepare a 700- to 1,050-word proposal that outlines your recommendations of where the extra budget should be invested based on the data analytics. Your proposal should include the following information:
Identify 3 traffic sources that are the most productive.
Identify 3 traffic sources that require additional investment.
Provide an argument on which marketing tactics you think the company should focus their efforts on.
Determine the pages on the site that should be promoted the most.
Recommend the top 3 site pages that should be improved to increase customer experience.
Support each decision with a rationale using the provided data.

“Maintaining Ethical Principles in the Employer-Employee Relationship: Exploring Key Categories and Perspectives”
Ethical principles apply to all aspects of the employer-employee relationship.
The employer-employee relationship should not be looked at simply in economic terms. It is a
Significant human relationship of mutual dependency that has great impact on the people involved. A person’s job, like a person’s business, are highly valued possessions that pervasively affect the lives of the employees and their families. With stakeholders everywhere, the relationship is laden with moral responsibilities. Though the pressures of self-interest are very powerful and compelling, both workers and bosses should guide their choices by basic ethical principles including honest, candor, respect and caring.
Open and read the link below which discusses the rights and duties of both employers and employees. The article lists many categories (Business Ethics, Disability Law, Discrimination, etc.) that are important considerations in any employer-employee relationship. Choose any of the categories listed and dive deeper into the subject matter. Give the class information that you have gathered, and also discuss your viewpoints of the issue. -
