FOOD PANTRY
Before this assignment, I had no idea that our school had a dedicated food pantry system. After reading several articles about food pantries and their help around handfuls of schools, I was intrigued. Food pantries are a necessity in all schools especially ones in high priced cities.

Lasercut Polyhedron

Major Creative Work – Climate & Energy
For one week we have to make one or more changes to reduce our own energy use and greenhouse gas emissions based on the carbon footprint we had calculated before. I decided my change for the week should be something small because my energy consumption is already at a fairly low amount. So with that […]
