School Retrofits Go Green

Old schools under go green makeovers aimed at student health and financial savings. By: James Daly

What did I learn? That the school district or that the state do not provide funds for schools to go green. Also, that schools are not only going to save the earth, but they are saving money for school, and the students will learn about the global warming crisis. Also, the cost of the retrofit change is so expensive, but the positive outcome for schools is that in the long run they will recoup the money invested. Another thing that I learned is that theres a website for schools to present theri go green ideas to get fund money to start a good project.

What else do I want to learn? Is hwo do students do biodiesel fuel from using the left over cooking oil from the cafeteria. Also, I would like to learn how do teachers and students that changed the regular light bulb to the fluorescent save money. I would like to know the difference of this two different bulbs.
