This initiative challenges schools to find innovative ways to reduce energy consumption at each campus. Partnering with the Miami Heat, schools were challenged to reduce their environmental impact. The initiative raises environmental awareness of the effects on the environment of CO2 emissions, as well as educating the facilities to potential financial savings through responsible energy consumption. Schools participate in a three month challenge where they launch a campaign to reduce the schools KWH usage. Schools are rewarded with incentives for “Going Low”.
We expanded the How Low Challenge to Dade County Public Schools and the schools have a partnership with the organization called Dream in Green. They are bringing approx.92 schools to the challenge this year. Palm Beach Schools are also participating in the How Low Can You Go Challenge.
