Sustainable Living: Energy and Sustainability

Science Standards: MS-ESS3 (Earth and Human Activity); MS-PS3 (Energy); MS-LS2 (Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics)

What is energy, and how is it made, used, and stored? This program explores various forms of energy, including the Center’s hydroelectric, solar, and geothermal energy systems. Students will also compare each method of energy production observed to “traditional” methods of energy generation. Additionally, students will be introduced to the concept of sustainability through the lens of energy and food consumption and consider how each relates to their own lives and choices.
