Week #8: GO GREEN (Go Vikes)

Hey Scholars!

A few weeks ago we talked about Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency. Find an ad online that is promoting an comapany's "new" product that is "GREEN" (uses renewable energy or is certified Energy Star) and post the weblink here.


Mr. D

PS: Don't forget to keep preparing for the AP Exam if you plan on taking it!

PPS: Sorry this is late (past 5:00pm) I forgot bball was until 5pm. GO VIKES!

    "Bank of America is proving that eco-friendly operations can coexist with business growth. According to their corporate website, the company reduced paper use by 32% from 2000-2005, despite a 24% growth in their customer base! Bank of America also runs an internal recycling program that recycles 30,000 tons of paper each year, good for saving roughly 200,000 trees for each year of the program’s operation. As if that weren’t enough, the company also offers employees a $3,000 cash back reward for buying hybrid vehicles."

    I liked the Idea of a huge company that thrives on the use of paper contributing to the help for stopping the need for deforestation, and I wanna get a hybrid now!! XD

    This toilet has a sink on top so when you flush, clean water comes out of the tap so you can wash your hands before it goes into the tank to refill it.
