Answer» GREEN schools are not only environmentally friendly but also generate COST SAVINGS in the form of reduced water and energy use. The standard for environmentally friendly schools is Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, a framework for building schools that meet certain benchmarks for sustainability, and a certification that more schools are seeking to achieve as they upgrade existing facilities and expand their campuses. Reduce idling outside school; instead, turn off car and bus engines. Encourage the school to use buses with cleaner fuels, such as biodiesel or to start investing in hybrid buses. During COMMUNITY service days, have STUDENTS replace existing incandescent light bulbs with compact fluorescents. Ask the school to use environmentally friendly cleaning fluids and nontoxic pesticides. Encourage the lunchroom to avoid using plastics. There are steps that parents and students can take separately from their school to reduce energy use and waste, and students and parents can also work with their schools to determine the school's energy use and how to reduce it over time. |
