Radon Campaign


How would you develop a national awareness campaign? Name some of your potential collaborators (stakeholders).


A national awareness campaign has a lot of moving parts.  I would use social media, grassroots efforts, print media, and public events to bring awareness. Social media would be a major part of providing awareness. However, I would also have a team of individuals using grassroots methods to publicize the campaign and educate the population who have limited access to the Internet. Additionally, the print media and public events would be used to reach out to the communities that have limited access to the internet and get the community interested in the campaign’s mission. Potential stakeholders would be families and homeowners.

Ideal Chemical Policy

After watching the videos provided and completing this module, I am very surprised.  There needs to be a major reform in public policy with regards to regulatory and protection laws regarding workers and communities.  While I knew a brief and surface level amount of information regarding the issue of chemical exposure and policy, I did not know, in depth, the minimal approach companies take in order to protect their employees or the communities they are in close proximity to. Therefore, I believe an ideal chemical policy includes one of strict regulatory laws.  Chemical should be researched and tested before being used. If the chemical being tested poses a significant health, environmental risk, it should not be used.  An alternative ought to be sought. Additionally, if a chemical is found to be dangerous and there are workers or communities who have been exposed, the company should be forced to release the information and provide the services to remedy this issue....

Blog about a Zero Waste Life

I really enjoyed the posted video and the subject of living zero waste.  I recently saw a writer for Buzzfeed explore this lifestyle and commit to doing it for a month. Over the course of the month she found it to be difficult, but very satisfying. I do not live a zero waste lifestyle, however, over the past few months, I have begun to reduce our waste.  I no longer use bags for my produce.  I try to avoid buying food in bags or containers that cannot be recycled and I make sure to shop in the bulk bin.  Not only does this save some money, it makes you more aware of the foods you put in your body. Overall, I would like to eventually transition to a zero waste life, however, I find it might be a little difficult when it comes to certain aspects of cooking. For example, when you braise meat, you should dry it off. I usually use paper towels. I guess you could use towels, however, I feel like that could be a potential health risk or contamination problem. I really respe...

Think About It-Website Exploration

As we begin to think about being active and prepared, explore  the website for The National Center for Disaster Medicine and Public Health  (Links to an external site.) Links to an external site.  and the links that are specific to your region or area of interest to learn more about health (physical and psychosocial) and environmental impacts or preparedness needs for these disaster precipitators. In California we have the  Disaster Healthcare Volunteers Site  (Links to an external site.) Links to an external site. , where healthcare professionals and those with healthcare experience can express a desire to be a volunteer should a disaster happen. Is there something similar where you live? The website provided several links regarding natural disasters. When looking at this site and the references for natural disasters, I immediately began to think about Hurricane Harvey and the devastation it caused. Specifically, I began to think about the w...
