Impact

Fall

Team Members:
Caitlynn Turner (age:15)
Morgan Mosley (age:15)

Project Category:
Close the Loop
Project Outline:

The main highlight of the project we are doing is making a petition for people to drop their thermostats by 2 degrees in the winter, drop your water heater by 20 degrees, and also to only use the warm & cold water setting on your washer, not hot. Along the way we want to start recycling in churches and businesses. Also, we plan to start recycling milk cartons at our high school & surrounding elemantary schools. We are going to start a website and make hand-outs to inform people about the polars bears situation and how they can make an impact and support our project!
