The research question seeks to unmask the reasons for the decrease in recycling. The survey provided looks poses questions that help determined general demographics of the survey participants and seeks to uncover what is impacting recycling in Wilmington. As recommended by Johnson (2014) the survey should be concise and not take a great deal of time to complete (p. 142).  Johnson (2014) raises to critical points on data collection, first the survey needs to be pretested before being administered to the public (p. 142) and the method of conducting the survey can greatly impact the response rate (p. 129)
