Creating an Earth+ Game Students learn how to teach others about an Earth+ issue and/ or solution through a game for all ages.
Energy Efficiency and Exit Signs Buildings can take many different steps to lower their carbon footprint. Energy consumption is one of the largest contributors to carbon output. In this workflow you will learn how incandescent exit signs affect the carbon footprint of a building and how to reduce that. You will also go out in the field, identify old technology or broken exit signs, present your case to the owner of the establishment and attempt to reduce their carbon footprint by changing out their exit signs using incandescent.
Water Quality Testing This project will cycle you through the collection of various measures of water quality along with their geographic locations.
Greentorch photoluminescent exit signs help the environment by using no electricity, no batteries, and last longer than other self-luminous exit signs. Gambassa's "Energy efficiency and exit signs" project curriculum teaches students how to generate income by using available utility retrofit rebate programs to replace incandescent exit signs.
