Introduction
Resource-efficient Society aim to maximising the
supply of money, materials and other staff and minimum wasted effort or expense
that can be in order to function effectively.
Natural resources support the functioning of global
economy and our quality of life. These resources include raw materials such as
fuels, minerals and metals. The pressures on resources are increasing.
If current trends continue, by 2050, the global
population is expected to have grown by 30% to around 9 billion and people in
developing and emerging economies will legitimately aspire to the welfare and
consumption levels of developed countries. (A resource-efficient Europe 2013)
The intensive use of the world's resources puts our plant
on dangerous situation. Continuing our current situation of resources use is
not an option.
To dealing with situation, increasing resource efficiency
will be key to securing our life. It will bring major economic opportunities,
improve productivity, and decrease costs. It is necessary to develop new
products and services and find new ways to reduce inputs, minimise waste,
improve management of resource, change consumption patterns, optimise
production processes.
In general speaking, building up a Resource-efficient society
will be huge benefit for all human beings. For people who do value resource-efficient will gain more positive emotion through
experience of using new product or services. Because of maximizing of using
product value, people will get more efficient daily life without big wastage like
previous life pattern.
When Resource-efficient society working into right
track, Society will develop sustainable.

Approach (My interest and
abilities)
As an international
student, I am not having a stable home in Australia. Because we renting place and
when we come back hometown, we will terminate the contact with agent. When we
come will renting a place to stay.
For this reason, we
move a lot. As resource-efficient products, it will really help us to improve
the efficient of our life.
Compared with other countries, China
has a small amount of per-capita resources. That consumes a large amount of
natural resources and produce a large amount of waste, has caused serious
environmental pollution problems.
When my holiday I will back to china
and have some travel, I can really see how resource shortage of some area. So I become quite value
of resource like water, paper, electronic etc.
Approach
or method
“Extreme User Interviews” from IDEO methods
card really helped. Live in china my parents are very familiar of this
situation in china.
“Narration” is a good way to reach user’s
motivations, concerns, perception and reasoning.
Also online research is important of primary
stage of design.
Library contain some literature review is quite
helped me.
