Pennies 4 Energy for the Future

the problem:

We want to solve the problem of Conservation of Energy and energy resources.

vital stats:

people impacted:

1,000,000

people involved:

5

why it's important:

Conservation of Energy and energy resources is important to me because I am only 9 years old, and people are saying I will not have any Energy when I grow up.

the plan of action:

I would like to start a "Pennies 4 Energy, for the future". This project will include all the students at my school. Each student will be asked to bring in 4 pennies a week for one entire grading period (2 periods out of 4). The classrooms at each grade level with the most pennies win a pizza or ice cream party. Pennies will then be presented to Vice President Al Gore's going green projects. Hopefully to become an annual event throughout the county school system, then the state.

how you can get involved:

Others can help by donating their pennies, ice cream, pizzas, money bags, penny holders, banners etc.
