go green

so our school was on the local news a couple months back because we purchase more than 50% of our energy from renewable resources. we're awesome.

something else awesome about our school is that in the fall, all of the apples that we serve are picked at a nearby orchard, where the apple cider we serve is also made. De-licious!

and the most awesome part is that our headmaster has a stationary bike in his basement that he hooked up to a machine that grinds wheat (or other things) while he bikes. and then we use that wheat for our lunches. this all makes me feel very much like i'm living in san francisco, except for the fact that DC is more fun.

so how many faculty/students drive SUV's?

You should have your students design more things like the wheat grinder, and you could have an entire faculty gym down there.

Is it some sort of alternative school? Surely it's not a public school - they'd have laws about buying from the wrong resources or something!

Very cool.
