And the Survey Says...
As a result of the survey conducted by UCA Business students, the 2012 EcoFest focused on Practical Solutions to Sustainable Living
THE NUMBER ONE INTEREST OF THOSE RESPONDING WAS …
Health Issues Related to Our Environment! Several other issues ran a close second, third and fourth.
With the help of several professionals, educators, volunteers and organizations, a new HEALTH section was introduced in 2012. It included excellent practical information, including Healthy Homes to avoid respiratory illnesses; a Prescription Drug Collection; skin cancer/care; proper eye care/protection; a comparison of food nutrients vs economics; green cleaners, and more. This popular section will be expanded in 2013.
Please join us as a visitor, volunteer, exhibitor or sponsor. Volunteers and exhibitors are encouraged to sign up early!
