Creative Work for Sustainablity by Colleagues and their Families
Kindergarten teacher, Ronnie Feldman, photographed the Cool Globes Exhibit, a collection of globes designed by artists concerned about the effects of global warming.
She photographed the collection while it was on display in Crissy Field this fall in the hope that perhaps one or more of our students might be inspired to design their own artistic globe showing concern for a sustainable planet.
Mme. Vilna's husband, Luis Santos, created this beautiful piece for his master's recital and was asked by National Geographic to add his work to their site. He combines still footage, video and his original music to create an experience of the life of the rainforest to inspire change.

Alternative Energy 3v, 2006 .
Brief Description: "This three-volume set introduces students to issues surrounding both current energy sources and alternative energy options. While there is significant discussion of the non-renewable resources now used to meet the majority of the world's energy needs (oil, coal, and natural gas), the primary focus of the set is on newer options to meet the ever-growing demand. These options include wind and solar energy, fuel cells, hydropower, geothermal power, and biomass energy. In addition, more theoretical sources are also explored, including cold fusion, zero point energy, and universal forces. Entries discuss the science behind the energy source, notable scientists and scientific discoveries, current examples of use, and the issues, challenges, and obstacles to large-scale use."
