Letting Teens See Renewable Energy in Action

The Go Green Initiative works hard to provide students with opportunities to learn about how the systems in their communities work. We help them learn about their local energy, water, waste and food systems. One of our recent endeavors provided some teenagers with the opportunity to get “up close and personal” with wind and energy-from-waste technology, and to explore solar and hydroelectric, as well. The photo you see here is a teen investigating how energy is created from post-recycled solid waste. Click here to see the video we produced about renewable energy.
