Participate in EDN's poll to find out the best way to green schools worldwide
Untitled Document
1.8 billion of the world's 6.6 billion inhabitants are of school age, so making our schools environmentally-friendly could inspire nearly a third of the earth's population to take responsibility for the environment. With an example like that, EDN thinks the rest of us might find the inspiration to follow our children's lead.
