Why is there no Mahalo Answers section for environmental/green issues? Do you think there should be one?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Is there any way to "cross-list" items? I think for browsing purposes, having the environmental topics all over the place will make them difficult to find. Ideally, if you could tag the questions and list them in both a separate category and under the "other" category would be perfect - i.e., have hybrid cars under both an environmental category and the cars category. This cross-classification would be handy for lots of things - you could have a question like "Should I get a pit bull if I live in X city" under both legal and pets. As a lawyer, I'd have one answer, based on the breed-specific legislation that might be in place in your city, and I'd probably be surfing the legal category but not the pet category. At the same time, a pit bull lover/rescuer who knows about the dog parks and culture of a certain city might post about very different issues and would only be looking at the pet category to answer questions.
I suspect this question is going to come up a LOT in the near future as you get more users.
You're absolutely right that this question will and has already come up quite a bit. We decided to stick to One Question-One Category for the time being, deciding that having it otherwise could possible encourage abuse and confuse the user experience. It's definitely on our radar, though, and we'll be weighing the pros and cons of these changes in the near future.
Thanks!
