Chaminade 2017-18 Green Schools Quest

March 11, 2018

We would like to expand our waste reduction program. We launched a 3 bin waste system this year in the cafeteria and will be heavily educating how to sort compost, landfill, and recycling. We hope to perform a waste audit to insure success.

We would like the Student Club to build container boxes from recycled wood for battery recycling and old cell phone collection. Perhaps tagging on a no car idling campaign on campus as well later in the year.

We are interested in doing an energy audit on existing solar panel buildings in comparison with non solar power buildings and also general energy consumption school wide.

Intended impact of project

Reduced environmental impact
Increased environmental & sustainability literacy
