  • examine the environmental impact of schools and services upon their communities,
  • recommend best practises to reduce environmental impacts,
  • track district utility consumption and explore efficiency strategies,
  • provide staff, students and community information about initiatives in our district schools,
  • provide links to curricular resources,
  • provide links to student activities,
  • provide links to local, provincial, federal and international energy and environmental websites.
