+
+## Dataset Structure
+
+The dataset is presented in a form of two csv files containing training and test subsets. 
+Each entry of the files contains the practice ID (column "id_practice", the practice ID from the table below), the name of the green practice ("name\_practice"), the sentence containing the mention of the practice ("span"), the full text of the post ("text"), and the post ID ("id_post").

+## Dataset Creation
+
+### Source Data
+
+Social media posts from the VKontakte social network.
+
+The research centers around the green practices of Tyumen, a sizable town in the Russian Federation with a population of 850,000. The GreenRu dataset consists of social media posts from the VKontakte social network. A social graph was employed to identify VKontakte communities discussing waste sorting. This graph was built to group VKontakte green communities of Tyumen covering significant user topics such as animals, eco-food, eco-markets, and separate waste collection <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/351339333_Green_Practices_Ways_to_Investigation">[more details]</a>. Another essential selection factor was the availability of posts created from January 2021 to June 2021 during data collection. Thus, six VKontakte communities for text collection were selected. 
+
+#### Data Collection and Processing
+
+To collect posts, the VK API tool was utilized. GreenRu includes only the posts that contain textual information and does not include duplicate posts.
+
+#### Annotation process
+
+Two experts on green practices from the University of Tyumen, Russia, annotated the sentences. Initially, they labeled each sentence with the relevant types of green practices, allowing for multiple labels per sentence. Both experts worked independently on this first stage. In the second stage, they reviewed and adjusted their labels. If there were any discrepancies, they resolved them through discussion.
