The project examined to what extent radio and TV programmes and interactive websites can make the average family adjust its behaviour in a more climate-friendly direction. A CO2 calculator and a CO2 diet were developed, available on www.dr.dk/klima (Test dig selv) and www.mapmyclimate.dk. Follow-up questionnaire surveys and focus group interviews showed that radio and TV programmes can contribute to adjustments in behaviour, whereas websites can primarily be used to increase the knowledge of families already positive towards behavioural adjustments.
