“Conducting an environmental poll is often worthwhile, but it can be very expensive,” said Eric Eckl, the company’s founder and owner. “Our online environmental poll collection is the next best thing to doing your own original research.”

Water Words That Work, LLC, has been collecting and analyzing environmental polls, surveys, focus group reports, and related materials for many years. The company has used this collection as the foundation for developing its techniques and services, such as the environmental message method and the Due Diligence Test Panel.

The collection is now among the largest of its type in the world, and features more than 700 research reports dating back to 1994. The database is powered by the Delicious social bookmarking system. Users can search it by title, date, topic, location, research firm, and many other criteria.

Nature protection and pollution control organizations can use the materials in this database in any number of ways:
• Conducting literature reviews prior to launching your own environmental poll
• Conducting literature reviews as supplement to or in lieu of conducting your own environmental poll
• Comparing environmental attitudes and opinions in different locations, or at different times
• Comparing attitudes and opinions about various conservation topics
• Comparing attitudes and opinions among people from different walks of life
“The research in this database cost many millions of dollars, but the sponsors elected to make their findings available to all, for free,” Eckl said. “It’s only fair that this database of their work be available to all, for free, too.”

Calling all natural resource managers, water utility executives, watershed organizations, waterkeepers, and land trusts! The National Wildlife Federation will host a hands-on environmental communication workshop designed just for you in Austin on May 5th, 2010.

The “Water Words That Work” workshop re-orients conservation professionals to the language that the public uses when they talk about nature protection and pollution control. Participants will learn to prepare written and spoken communications that connect with everyday citizens and motivate action on behalf of our rivers, forests, lakes, wetlands, and oceans.

“The Water Words That Work workshop has earned rave reviews from attendees all across the country,” said Lacey McCormick, Communications Manager with the National Wildlife Federation. “We’re pleased to be able to offer this workshop to our peers here in Texas.”

“Environmental scientists, engineers, attorneys, and other professionals often struggle to explain their work to the public in layman’s terms,” said Eric Eckl, owner of Water Words That Work, LLC, who will lead the workshop. “This workshop will help them overcome this challenge and make the case to the public for political and financial support for their work.”

Most environmental communications produce lip service to conservation, but only a few produce action. This workshop will explore what distinguishes the two — synthesizing the results of hundreds of opinion polls, focus groups, and social research studies that explore the question. Participants will learn a 4-step writing method for translating scientific background information into effective issue advocacy, fundraising, and pollution prevention materials.

By applying the Water Words That Work method, attendees will develop the communications skills to succeed:

• Environmental writing for citizens
• Planning social marketing campaigns
• Working with reporters
• Preparing websites and blogs
• Fundraising
• Speaking at public meetings and hearings
• Lobbying public officials
