I. The Rooftop Installation of Solar Panels

What is the most valuable, most widely used and easiest resource to conserve? Energy. Energy in all its forms is what makes our community go. As more and more energy is consumed, scientists worry about its natural depletion, energy companies are able to significantly increase its cost and unknown amounts of damage may be caused to our environment. For example, consider the impact of electricity generation when you turn on the lights or plug something in. Does the impact simply occur at the power plant? No. If you use fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas to generate electricity, you may be contributing to air pollution and creating greenhouse gases which contribute to climate change. This is in addition to the ever increasing costs of electricity and the burden it places on our community as well as our environment.

The Future Cities Group, led by Mrs. Ellen Milbrandt, is responsible for making the students ...

Reducing Carbon Footprint

As part of our project for reducing the carbon footprint at our school, we decided to design a vestibule for the front entrance to reduce the heat/energy loss due to the constant traffic of students and teachers through this entrance. We will use this model to estimate the projected cost and energy savings using the Department of Energy's E-Quest program.
