Description


After learning about several ways in which our everyday actions impact climate change, choose one action to conduct more research on and create a PowerPoint presentation to tell us more! Use the unit material and reliable online resources to gather more information.

There are several ideas with information throughout the unit but there is even more information out in the world! Think about what you do every day, and how the activity uses energy or natural resources. Think about a product you buy—how it was made, what natural resources were used to make it? You can also do a quick google search of “everyday activities that effect the environment” and start reading some articles for more ideas.

Remember to use reliable sources from the internet. There is a lot of misinformation out there and finding reliable information can be difficult. The best sources of reference material for your presentation are scientific journals found in the CSU library databases. You can also find reliable statistics at organization websites listed in the Unit under “Combat Climate Change.”

Your presentation must include:

  1. What everyday activity or product have you chosen to present? Why did you choose this activity or product? Why is it important?
  2. Connect the activity/product to its impact on the environment and climate change. How does doing the activity or making the product use natural resources, disrupt habitat, impact wildlife or other effects on the environment?
  3. Report data and statistics, with references, on how this activity/product effects the environment.
  4. What can people do to decrease the activity/product’s impact on the environment?

Be sure to follow the formatting and guidelines provided below:

  • Must include at least three visual aids.
  • Must include three reliable references. At least one source must come from the CSU Online Library.
  • Use bulleted information on slides (5 lines or less).
  • Include details in the speaker notes (more information that you would say during an actual presentation).
  • Include a separate title slide and separate reference slide.
  • Use an appropriate font and background.
  • Include at least nine slides, but not more than 15 slides (not counting your title slide and reference slide).
  • Use correct APA format for references and citations, and use correct grammar and spelling.
  • Upload the presentation as a .ppt or .pptx file.

Y O U R ASSOCIATION N E H A N E WS NEHA’s New Climate Change Activities and Resources The National Environmental Health Association (NEHA), in partnership with ecoAmerica, Climate for Health (https://ecoamer ica.org/health/), is developing resources for NEHA members to address climate change impacts. Some of those resources include a video that features NEHA member climate change success stories and a Climate Change and Emergency Preparedness and Response White Paper that addresses how emergency preparedness and response are directly related to climate change. Climate Change Success Story Video The climate change success story video showcases NEHA members addressing climate change impacts from Cambridge, Massachusetts; Franklin County, Ohio; and Salt Lake County, Utah. Environmental health professionals and members of NEHA’s Climate Change Committee share their inspiring stories that address strategies for adaptation, mitigation at the community level, and strong coalitions and collaborations. To view the video, please visit www.neha.org/node/60356. Cambridge, Massachusetts The city of Cambridge, Massachusetts, released a comprehensive climate change vulnerability assessment (CCVA) in 2015 and it was determined that the climate of the past is no longer a reliable indicator of the future. The CCVA endeavored to model what would happen to city residents and the built environment when there was an increase in temperature, precipitation, sea-level rise, and coastal storm surge, as well as the implications these increases would have on economics, health, and well-being. The assessment identified Cambridge’s key physical and social vulnerabilities based on the assumption that no actions are taken and modeled risks were varied by neighborhood and demographic factors. The city ranked vulnerability factors and critical assets that led to prioritizing two main neighborhoods to develop climate change preparedness and resilience plans (CCPR). The goal of a CCPR plan is to provide a realistic set of actions and strategies in both the shortand long-term that could be implemented in partnership with the city, its residents, and partner organizations and businesses. The CCPR plan is divided into sections that address social and physical vulnerabilities, including health status, buildings and infrastructure, and the natural ecosystem. Cambridge focused on novel community engagement strategies aimed at building neighborhood social capital, enhancing social connections before an emergency exists, and increasing resident self-determination and empowerment. Franklin County, Ohio In early 2016, the Ohio Public Health Association (OPHA) recognized a lack of funding and inconsistent local public health efforts to address climate change in Ohio. With dedicated statewide funding unavailable, OPHA convened a group of public health practitioners, academicians, and other interested subject matter experts to discuss the public health response to this issue. The Ohio Public Health Climate Resilience Coalition’s (OPHCRC) purpose is to leverage knowledge and resources across the state to create a white 50 Volume 81 • Number 5 paper and toolkit for local health departments to utilize and to encourage public health action. Utilizing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Building Resilience Against Climate Effects (BRACE) Framework, the group worked to assess climate impacts and identify vulnerabilities in Ohio. With this information, OPHCRC began development of a white paper to demonstrate a coordinated public health effort in Ohio that would also raise awareness of the need for local action. With priorities and budgets shifting, it is imperative for local governing bodies to take action when and how they can. The coalition is working to supply local health departments with tools and resources that they can use in their communities to build climate resilience. Salt Lake County, Utah Salt Lake City and County are addressing the challenge of climate change by helping clean the air. Fortunately, there has been a dramatic reduction in the cost and effectiveness of wind and solar energy in recent years, as well as an increase in the willingness of individuals, families, organizations, and many governments to step forward and act. Salt Lake County Health Department completed a comprehensive climate adaptation plan and hosted a seminar to introduce it to the community. The department also hosted its Fourth Annual Climate and Health Symposium—a time for local experts to discuss and report on climate activities. Salt Lake City Mayor Jackie Biskupski is an ardent advocate for climate change response. She was selected as chair of the U.S. Conference of Mayors Alliance for a Sustainable Future and is one of the early adopters of the Sierra Club’s Mayors for 100% Clean Energy goal. Salt Lake City recently opened the first netzero energy fire station in the nation. Salt Lake County is a partner with the Utah Climate Action Network, an initiative led by Utah Clean Energy that provides a forum for all climate experts and leaders to share ideas and best practices on climate solutions. In October 2018 they hosted Utah Climate Week where a wide range of concerned community members, organizations, and businesses promoted awareness and action around climate change. Climate Change and Emergency Preparedness and Response White Paper NEHA is also developing a Climate Change and Emergency Preparedness and Response White Paper that addresses the relationship between climate change impacts and emergency preparedness and response. Increasing temperatures are changing weather patterns and the frequency and intensity of weather events. More severe weather events are producing more substantial and longlasting damage, intensifying the need to incorporate environmental health professionals in the context of emergency preparedness when responding to disasters. As of press, the white paper has not been posted but it is expected to be available by January. Please check www.neha.org/eh-topics/ climate-change-0 for this resource, as well as for more NEHA and ecoAmerica resources that address climate change.
