Would you wear a watch and slippers made from carbon dioxide emissions? Or brush your teeth using toothpaste made from CO₂? Before the pandemic, students at Evergreen Middle School were learning about real products that capture and store carbon dioxide that would otherwise go into the atmosphere.
Resource Conservation
In 2006, the district adopted a resource and utility management program focused on conservation and cost savings. While our student enrollment and facilities square footage have grown significantly, we continue to reduce utility costs through proactive management. The powerED Performance Dashboard helps LWSD identify low-cost and no-cost ways to:
- Conserve energy and water
- Reduce waste
- Educate students and staff to save energy
- Use sustainable building and maintenance practices
