Question

I conducted field study regarding green consumption.
I manipulated 3 types of eco friendly messages and each type of messages was exposed to the restaurant visitors for each week.
So I got the total number of visitors and the total amount of waste for each week.
However, I don't know who visisted the restaurant and how much waste each visitor threw away.
I only got the average amount of waste per visitor.
I want to compare two types of messages were persuasive comparing to control condition.
Without observed data set, can I statistically compare the average values?
Thanks for your help!

You can use a Chi Square test to compare the averages per visitor :)

Due to strong restrictions, the restaurant business suffers from a large decline in visitors. It is believed that if you apply diversification methods, then he will be able to maintain his main direction. We believe that the restaurant industry will resort to innovative mechanics when robots replace human labor and quadcopters will deliver food.

Hi
Wondering if anyone has came across any articles that have attempted to estimate the production of plastics required for hospitality sectors such as restaurants/cafes, hotels, pubs/nightclubs?
Another subject matter would be the % of global plastic waste currently estimated to be produced from the hospitality sector as stated above.
I'd appreciate any pointers, even if it isn't a global stat and is focused on an individual area, as this may help me gather data that is out there.
I've gathered a good few sources from ScienceDirect and the likes already but you can never have to many right? xD
I hope this makes sense, happy to clear up any confusion RE question if there is any
Thanks in Advance

I'm designing a zero-waste restaurant and considering using marble waste to make some tables and a bar countertop.
My clients think it's not "sustainable enough" and I would like to have more info on that.
Thank you for your input.
Relevant answer
Answer
Dear Miguel,
In my opinion, stone / marble is a sustainable material only if it is left where it is, in stone / marble quarries. Marble extraction, exploitation, cutting, polishing, transport are very much energy-consuming and unsustainable operations, therefore the end product becomes expensive and unsustainable, even if we speak about marble waste for handicraft products.

The on-going Covid-19 pandemic has had devastating economic effects on many industries. However, few have suffered to the same extent as full-service restaurants. Numerous studies have shown that immigrants are over-represented in precarious, hourly food-service jobs. Covid-19 has suddenly intensified the uncertain, stressful and already difficult circumstances of immigrant food service sector workers. Early reports suggest that racialized immigrants and immigrant women have been particularly affected. Indeed, policy experts are predicting that many of the lost jobs will never return. By exploring the role of social capital in helping immigrants in Toronto’s restaurant industry to cope with the industry-specific effects of government-mandated Covid-19 prevention measures (i.e. job loss, furlough, reduced hours, reduced pay) and how these interact with immigration status and settlement trajectories to influence resilience, this research seeks to inform both post-pandemic and foodservice-related policy to make sure that immigrants working in the restaurant industry are do not become the unseen casualties of the pandemic. While anecdotal evidence of home kitchens and platform work to supplement lost jobs exists, it is essential that immigrants are not replacing one precarious job for another. These already marginalized workers deserve and need more targeted training and reskilling to ensure that they are supported and that their human capital is not being wasted.
I would be interested in developing research questions with an eye towards comparative perspectives, both within Canada as well as internationally.
Please weigh in if you have a similar research focus!

Answer
Hello Rebecca,
I agree with Vit Mateju. Based on my/our 43 years worldwide expertise in advanced biological conversion of mainly organic waste(water) the best enzymes for FOG (fat, oil, grease) hydrolysis and biodegradation are produced by selected and adapted bacteria and Archaea. For organic wastewaters with low to medium strength (300 - 3000 ppm COD), we achieve fast selection and adaptation in our advanced activated sludge (AAs) process. For higher strengths, we apply high rate anaerobic digestion (HRAD) especially in warm-tropical climate conditions such as in Nigeria.

With the Covid-19 pandemic situation, several firms have changed the way they operate. For example, some organizations have gone "virtual": several employees work remotely and more items are delivered home instead of being taken from the shelves or restaurant, etc. On the other hand, communities have more struggles and needs. Does the above increase or decrease, change or maintain, past Corporate Social Responsibilities for the Companies around us?

Close and casual contacts are determined after a NSW Health official carries out a risk assessment on the locations where a person with COVID-19 has visited whilst they are infectious. Settings might include public transport, residential homes, restaurants, pubs, cafes and other locations where the person has come into contact with people. Factors involved in the risk assessment include the time spent at the location, activities undertaken, the number of people present, and the size and layout of the setting or location.
If you are a close contact of a person with confirmed COVID-19 infection, you need to be isolated for 14 days after you last saw that person and seek immediate testing. You must self-isolate regardless of the test result. Self-isolating applies to all close contacts, even if you are well. It is important to monitor your health and report any symptoms as early as possible and get tested if new symptoms develop.
If you live in the same household as, or are identified as a close social contact, of the infected person, you should be tested again on day 10-12 of your isolation period. You should continue to self-isolate until you have completed your 14-day isolation period and have received a negative test result.

I am not going to regale you with statistics and lengthy historical perspectives, but merely my own experiences of change.
I remember the UK I grew up in as a child as dull, dreary and conservative. People did the same job all their lives, had one drive, which was eventually to rent or buy a small house. Every house seemed the same, often with a garden to the front and back. The National Health Service changed many things but without black women from the West Indies and Africa it would not have lasted a decade. Although many were subject to abuse and were rarely accepted they helped make the country. Asians arrived from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh bringing beautiful cafes, restaurants and shops that opened until late at night and Sundays. Service industries expanded and London Underground grew. The music changed with Jamaican riffs providing more complicated songs with broken rhythms and ranging cords. British music became the most popular music in the world.
The Britain of today is a hybrid culture. Better music, better clothes, more colourful and more fun. Literature has expanded its horizons, art works are more vibrant. The markets are full of new food, fruits and vegetables. Carnivals fill the streets. All this is very different but ideals of Britishness have survived: professional and educational values, liberal beliefs and an unhindered sennse of justice.
Some people prefer everything to be the same, but change is good. New ideas are always necessary.

People usually go out at night to popular restaurants, cafes, sports bars etc in a neighbourhood streets where residential use along local streets has made way to commercial uses. These places are very vibrant and generate a lot of business (day and night) that they have become important nodes in the city but no study has been commissioned by the city authorities on the contribution these streets make to the local economy. It becomes difficult from a planning perspective to plan and regulate some of the night-time activities that occur in these places to mitigate negative externalities.

A strategy for combatting the corona virus is to increase physical distance among people by working from home, while closing businesses such as taverns and restaurants to slow the progression of the pandemic so as not to overwhelm the health sector and to prevent loss of life among the most vulnerable. And, of course, this is, and should be, the very highest priority. But does this spreading out of costs over a longer time horizon increase the economic cost of the pandemic by putting businesses, especially small ones in the service sector, and those employed therein, under stain for a longer time period? During the Spanish influenza the epidemic ripped through the US population, carrying away over half a million, but the recession of 1918-19 was among the mildest on record. Of course, back then far more production took place within the household as the service sector was far smaller than it is today, and it is this sector that already is beginning to bear great hardship.
Relevant answer
Answer
The strategy of slowing coronavirus progress is a priority. Costs are currently not possible to estimate accurately. Only the costs of planned interventionist anti-crisis economic policies, including fiscal and monetary policies implemented in individual countries, are estimated. However, these are not all costs that will appear in subsequent years, which will also be the economic effects of a significant increase in debt in the state's financial systems, also in the years when the Koronavirus epidemic will no longer be, but the economic effects will remain for many years to come.
