Nothing is a hotter topic right now than than global warming and our universal need to live green. In support of growing environmental concerns, the federal government and many states are funding green schools.
Many of these eco-friendly schools are experimenting with everything from solar and wind energy sources, recycled building materials, and natural lighting to using green products and pesticides, implementing energy efficient technology and incorporating environmental issues in curriculum.
While it would be ideal if all schools could be green schools, it is difficult to find the time and money to reconstruct and convert currently existing schools.
Even if your school can’t or won’t invest in eco-friendly changes, you can still do your part and have a positive impact on your students, your school, and your community.
Just because you don’t have a green school, does not mean you can’t have a green classroom.
