Radon Media Campaigns

Do you want to know how to step out on the green side of building healthier?  EPA has developed a new media campaign, Living Healthy & Green, to educate consumers about the ease to test for radon.  The new campaign features Fuad Reveiz, a home builder and former professional football player, who builds his new homes radon-resistant and encourages others to do the same.  These unique Public Service Announcements (PSAs) promote building healthier homes starts from the ground up.  Ask media outlets in your area to use the Living Healthy & Green TV, radio and prints ads during January, National Radon Action Month, and in the months to follow. You can help to educate the public about how to improve air quality and preserve our families’ well-being indoors and out.

This media campaign is available in multiple mediums in English and Spanish.  Plus, there are seven different music formats for radio. Every campaign element can be viewed and heard on line at www.epapsa.com.

When participating in home shows and green festivals, display EPA's new "Build Green" pop-up banners, featuring Mr. Reveiz and radon-resistant new construction, at your booth. Contact Judy Molloy at judy@tvaccess.com or 1-800-944-9134 for information on how you can borrow this important outreach tool.

EPA Recommends: Test your home for radon -- it's easy and inexpensive; Fix your home if your radon level is 4 picocuries per liter (pCi/L) or higher. Radon levels less than 4 pCi/L still pose a risk, and in many cases may be reduced.
