The mind of a growing child is an impressionable thing. As a line taken from the musical Into the Woods states, ???Careful the things you say, children will listen. Careful the things you do, children will see and learn.??? And in fact, majority of the things children hear and see come from the place they spend majority of their time: school. So, in light of developing a more sustainable community, what can we do in order to show the youth the importance of practices that aid the environment rather than being detrimental to it? And how can we then expand that to the Oberlin community in order to positively move towards the goal of carbon neutrality? On the table is a plan that will address both of these issues: the construction of a consolidated, high performance, carbon neutral K-12 campus.
