Education about the different types of environmental hazards
is one of the effect ways to ensure that people know about the hazards they are
exposed to, and how they can protect themselves from further exposure. For this
reason, I have created a quick information flyer with some background knowledge
on PCBs, how they are released into the environment, ways in which people are
exposed to them, the health consequences associated with exposure, and what can
be done to minimize exposure. Many times,
people are unaware of the hazards they are exposed to on a daily basis, so information
devices such as flyers can help raise awareness on such issues. Flyers are
valuable devices because they are visually attractive, contain educational information
that is beneficial in preventing exposure to health hazards, and are readily
distributed in communities.
