Go Green, Hwa Chong! Done by: Leon Lim SiahZhiXuan Andre Poh Nigel Tan
Current Situation • Many students do not see being environmentally friendly as an important thing. • Although Hwa Chong has solar panels installed, many students still are not conscious about saving and protecting the environment. • Therefore, our group thinks that raising awareness is an important part of making our school 'Green'.
Current Situation • Also, we think that Hwa Chong has the potential to harness different types of renewable energy such as wind energy and solar energy. • Furthermore, Hwa Chong a large campus, allowing more structures within the campus to have tools (solar panels, micro-turbines) to harness these renewable energies for electricity.
Project Overview • Our action plan on how to green the school which includes: • Initiatives • Raising awareness
Project Overview • Target audience: everybody in Hwa Chong
Initiatives • We propose the following initiatives to green our school: • Installation of more solar panels • Making use of old & unwanted CDs • Micro-wind turbines on roof-tops • Vegetation on the rooftop • Replacing current lights with LED lights
LED lights Solar Panels Green roof, plants on roofs Micro Wind Turbines
Why raise awareness? • To educate the boys in HCI on the importance of ‘greening’ the school • Why is it essential to ‘green’ our school • To tell the pupils that they too, can play a part in saving the Earth
Ways to raise awareness • A video • Having professionals to give talks about renewable energy • Encourage students to take initiative to make Hwa Chong a “greener place”.
Intended outcome • We hope that from these methods of raising awareness, the students at HCI are able to: • Understand the importance of being environmentally friendly. • Be more pro-active in making our school a “greener place”.
