Question: can we make our schools more environmental friendly

I think so: I think that we can make almost everything we do more environmentally friendly just by thinking about what we’re doing and making some adjustments. Make sure you turn the lights off if you’re the last to leave a room, don’t leave taps running, turn of computers and screens when they’re not being used. We could also add solar panels or windmills to schools fairly easily if we could get the money to do it, and add insulation so that we don’t waste heat. A well insulated classroom full of students gets toasty warm pretty quickly: I don’t think they need heating most of the year.
