Hi Youle,
Very good observation that people behavior is important. I would even say
that people not only have to be involved, but they must actually drive the
change towards sustainability. I would put it like this:
People's *attitude* towards sustainability can be positively influenced by:

I also like the way that Comet deals with faceted navigation:
http://www.comet.co.uk.
They are using Endeca (http://endeca.com/) which is a pretty big
vendor of faceted navigation software. From my experience it works
well, since it builds the facets automatically (with a little help).

I don't know the right context for your freeze metaphor, but since
I'm an Architect by education I use AutoCAD every now and then and

I usually go for the W3Schools Stats, although they might be biased
towards technical-savvy users:

It's a shame but there's no reliable way of checking this across
the web.

I agree with Pauric. This was our biggest sore point at my last company,
too. Manual testing was the only way we could catch all but the most
fundamental design flaws. One thing that helped with the manual testing was
having the tester involved with the design process. We occasionally ran an

Highlighting bad interaction design from the organisation is a fair

interaction designer is their ability to explain issues to
developers.

I'll second that. The job is for a User Researcher and
