and amounts of energy and emissions being produced. Go Green
introduces students to viable options regarding alternative energy

Twenty students will explore what to
monitor and how to monitor for energy consumption with the goal of
reducing the amount of energy consumed and emissions produced for Metro

through lectures, and interactive design projects – in the classroom and
in the field. Students will build a proposal for Metro High School to
conduct a baseline study of the school’s energy footprint.
