A Child's Solar Powered Dream

[asinjames]

In a small community located just north of the San Francisco Bay an 8 year old boy refused to take no for an answer. Taren Bouwman, a student at Mary E. Silveira Elementary School in Marin County, California, had a goal to help his school convert from traditional power sources to solar power. Taren and his classmates researched what it would take to bring solar power to the school. Then they took their presentation to the school board, where it was well received. The idea of powering a school completely with a free, renewable power source was an attractive idea that in the end would bring great cost savings to the school district.

Wow. Talk about role reversal... the school learning valuable lessons from students!

These days, some students are being more care to the world than the elders.. We should be ashamed of it..

It's great that kids are taking the initiative to learning more about the environment. Also, it is nice that they're teaching their teachers.

Im Glad I came upon this, I started a website that would encourage others to begin using solar and wind power. Its nice to see that even children realize the importance of alternative energies, check out my site at elitecleanenergy.com
Stay Green ^^
