Projects

Below you can find links to several of the projects that we currently offer. All of the projects we do with schools are completely free of charge, supported by our many generous donors

We aim to customize our projects to each of the schools that we work with, and work very closely with the students and teachers. If you are interested in any of the projects below, please contact us, and we will be able to assist you in terms of technical support, equipment, and professional development to ensure that your project is a success. If you have an idea for a sustainability related project and don't see it below, please get in touch with us. We are always look to lend our expertise and network to help you get a successful project off the ground.

  • Data Informed Decisions – We want students to be able to explain why, and quantify the effect of each decision they made along the way to their final solution.
  • Economic Assessments – We expect students to be able to assess the cost effectiveness of their solutions, and be able to optimize their projects with limited budgets.
  • Environmental Impact and Lifecycle Assessments – We need students to take a holistic view to their projects. This means looking at their projects from cradle to grave, as opposed to just examining the use phase, and acknowledging that greenhouse gas reduction is not the only environmental issue at stake.
