Help color the schools green

November 2nd, 2007

Here are some facts from the US Green Building Council (in a recent press release):

*Twenty percent of Americans go to school each day.

*It costs on average less than 2 percent more to build a green school rather than a conventional school.

*The payback for a green school occurs within one year because of energy savings alone.

In addition to saving energy, green schools offer health benefits to the students and teachers who use them. To learn more, visit www.buildgreenschools.org.
