Our Plan
We know that buildings can affect people’s health and the ability of students to learn as well as having a huge environmental footprint. We want to work with Texas school districts in their efforts to decarbonize schools, lower utility bills, and create healthier environments for our educators, support staff, and children.
In order to provide communities with the healthy and sustainable schools that they deserve, we recommend that problem school buildings be identified and replaced with healthy and carbon-free buildings.
