With a small tweak, we can use the EARTH framework, which introduces sustainability and tangible returns, urging designers to rethink priorities and metrics. By embracing this change, we can design for a better future—both for users and the planet.

Each category also comes with three parameters: the goal (G) or objective, the signal (S) or evidence of a user’s actions, and the quantifiable metrics (M). A UX practitioner then fills in the relevant information pertaining to the product they are designing and tracks the results accordingly.</p><figure class="nv nw nx ny nz nm ns nt paragraph-image"><div role="button" tabindex="0" class="oc od fj oe bh of"><div class="ns nt pi"><picture><source srcSet="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:640/format:webp/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 640w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:720/format:webp/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 720w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:750/format:webp/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 750w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:786/format:webp/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 786w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:828/format:webp/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 828w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1100/format:webp/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 1100w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1400/format:webp/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 1400w" sizes="(min-resolution: 4dppx) and (max-width: 700px) 50vw, (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 4) and (max-width: 700px) 50vw, (min-resolution: 3dppx) and (max-width: 700px) 67vw, (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 3) and (max-width: 700px) 65vw, (min-resolution: 2.5dppx) and (max-width: 700px) 80vw, (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2.5) and (max-width: 700px) 80vw, (min-resolution: 2dppx) and (max-width: 700px) 100vw, (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) and (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" type="image/webp"/><source data-testid="og" srcSet="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:640/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 640w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:720/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 720w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:750/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 750w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:786/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 786w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:828/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 828w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1100/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 1100w, https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1400/0*kaEPUVZ9Lv09vfLg.png 1400w" sizes="(min-resolution: 4dppx) and (max-width: 700px) 50vw, (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 4) and (max-width: 700px) 50vw, (min-resolution: 3dppx) and (max-width: 700px) 67vw, (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 3) and (max-width: 700px) 65vw, (min-resolution: 2.5dppx) and (max-width: 700px) 80vw, (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2.5) and (max-width: 700px) 80vw, (min-resolution: 2dppx) and (max-width: 700px) 100vw, (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) and (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px"/><img alt="Given its usefulness to help designers to focus on key aspects of design objectively, along with its catchy name, it’s no surprise that the HEART framework is a popular tool among designers.
