While on the Innovation Trail, students will focus on the causes and effects of greenhouse gases, changing weather patterns, the influence of carbon in the atmosphere and nature’s ability to recycle.
Students will then learn what they can do to have an immediate and measurable impact on climate change by visiting our two LEED-certified Archetype Sustainable Houses.
