The Environmental Club at my high school, Mounds Park Academy, is raising money to purchase a 1.4 kW solar array and corresponding educational materials. The panels would be installed in a highly visible location on school grounds and would help to increase awareness about environmental issues in the school and surrounding communities, and to shape students into environmentally conscious young adults.

The Illick's Mill Partnership for Environmental Education is an innovative consortium transforming the City of Bethlehem's Illick's Mill into a community environmental center. We will establish a home for environmental action to preserve and protect the Monocacy Creek watershed and its abundant wildlife, and provide a model of environmentally sustainable practices and technology. Why re-use the Mill as an environmental center? Monocacy Nature Center, a 20-acre site contiguous to the mill, is located in a densely populated area, and is heavily utilized by local citizens.

Because of the large influence of oil production, large-scale factories and coal burning corporations that have settled in the southern states, most specifically those bordering the coast, the environmental destruction is greater than any other region in the United States.

Last year, the holiday lights twinkling from homes, businesses, and even boats were friendlier than in years past. I knew that as a result of my Project: Bright Idea, more than 1,200 out of the millions of bulbs in Boca Raton, Florida had been changed to CFLs – compact fluorescent light bulbs – that require only ten percent of the electricity of conventional bulbs.
