The Exchange is a great place to share information about educational tools and upcoming events. Participants have access to a wealth of information on topics directly related to community programs. For example:

• The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources discussed an educational tool they developed, a game called Air Jeopardy!, based on the popular television trivia show. Topics in their version include weather, air pollution, and other air quality issues. U.S. EPA responded that the North Carolina game inspired them to develop a similar one with topics such as chemistry, health effects and mobile sources. Visit the Fast Facts or 10 Simple Steps pages to find interesting statistics you can use to develop your own Air Jeopardy! game. Post your efforts on the Exchange and you too can inspire others!
• Lindsay Haas of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources promoted the launch of a new Web site targeted to elementary school kids and their teachers, www.airdefenders.org. Air quality, open burning and respiratory health are the focus of this Web site. Kids meet cartoon characters Seeker, Identifyer, and Recyclotron while they learn fun facts, play games and listen to music on the topics. The Teacher Pages are filled with other education resources. Log onto the Exchange to promote a Web site your organization has found helpful or to find other online resources for your program.
• This spring there is no shortage of events and conferences, and you can find them all posted on the Exchange! From the 15th annual Tour de Sol to the 10th annual Clean Cities Conference and the NIH Obesity and the Built Environment Conference, there is something for every organization to get involved in. Visit the Exchange to find out what's happening this season or to post your own events.
