Green Mountain Energy supplies 100% renewable electricity. Others use differing percentages of renewables. We should all know where and why we use the energy that we use. “Sustainability” is a powerful lesson for all of us to learn. The bottom line is not the cost per kilowatt hour, but the cost of UNsustainability. Lets educate ourselves, not just pretend to, at the lowest dollar cost. Coal is the least dollar cost for power, with the highest health and environmental costs.

All teachers will be required to give their lectures while on treadmills, that generate electricity, which will be routed to the grid. 8^P

Where is this energy coming from? What percentage is renewable? Education should “be education” not just teaching “about” issues. Nothing could be more important than sustainability and modeling sustainability. A good deal in education should not be entirely about “good deals,”
otherwise we find ourselves buying duplicate museums and stocking warehouses ceiling high with good deals on, now rotting, reams of papers.
