here's also the official CDC page regarding thimerosal. Note paragraph 4.

However, evidence from several studies examining trends in vaccine use and changes in autism frequency does not support such an association. Furthermore, a scientific review * by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) concluded that "the evidence favors rejection of a causal relationship between thimerosal-containing vaccines and autism." CDC supports the IOM conclusion.

Visualization ideas
Create posters / hand outs using photos and info to illustrate:
1. the best way to store various food items for max freshness and nutritional value.
Examples: dark glass for oils and nuts, nut milks 3 days are alive 5 days fresh, leafy greens = wash then store in.. whatever it is you do I don't know yet.
2. create a poster about common nutritional synergistic food combinations
Examples turmeric and onions, apples, oranges, blueberries, etc. Sources sited in 100 year lie lecture.
3. illustrate the idea of food miles
4. the trickle down effect of pesticide use
5. benefits of buying locally, where your dollar goes
6. general idea of voting with dollars
