Community Impact Award
Green Nuclear Energy?
The topic of our project is behavior and we are doing it on nuclear energy. We plan on educating people on how actually green it is. People are afraid of this type of energy because of incidents like the bombing of Hiroshima and disasters such as Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. We want to create a movie of interviews with several people that we do and don’t know and ask them what they think about it as a source of energy, then one of our team members will come in and educate that person either to persuade them to change their mind or further their understanding. We will also create a skit of what the earth will be like if we do not do something about this energy crisis and what it would be like if we safely used nuclear energy as another source.
Electric Rainfall
The purpose of our project is to resolve the dilemma concerning the consumption of energy at Bremerton High School. We plan to do this by constructing multiple systems of gutters and turbines. To do this we have combined the natural resources of Kitsap County to assist in the goal of an energy efficient high school. By assembling a network of gutters around the school, it will collect the rainfall. This excess collection of water will be routed into a turbine system, which will generate electricity. We hope our proposed idea will lead high schools around the nation to become a more eco-friendly nation.
Green Bremerton
The project will have one tri-fold board with six to eight essays explaining different aspects of the town; also the board will have pictures and a title. On the table, there will be a model of the city about 2.5 foot squared. Next there will be a model of a hydrogen car. Also a model of a house, approximately 1 foot by 6 inches by 9 inches. Possibly there will be a laptop with a slide show. We want to show how our town could become a greener community.
