Links to Tool Kit Materials: Weeks 13 – 16
In this phase of your designing your Outreach Campaign, you may have decided to reach residents by tabling at community events. Below you will find material you can print out and use on posters.
Information Sheets on Specific Health Impacts
A series of seven handouts was created on specific health impacts of climate change. These sheets give more information than the two-sided Health and Climate Outreach Sheet, and can be used by Climate Communicators for additional background information, or distributed to the public when your community is addressing specific health challenges. Templates for the PDF information sheets below are in this PowerPoint Template: Specific Climate Health Impacts , so you can modify the contact information for local services as needed.

Explanation of Mean Sea Level Rise This information is included in the Survey template, but was excerpted for use on a poster at tabling events in Boca Raton, FL and Delray Beach, FL. Some people had difficulty understanding this concept, so people staffing tables can be trained to explain it by referencing this graphic on a poster.
