School Board Saves Money on Green Energy Projects

Apparently it is easy being green.


The Keewatin-Patricia District School Board says its seen a three percent
reduction in its energy costs in the past year due to a number of different
conservation programs.

Kim Carlson is the school board's facilities manager and says by doing simple
things like upgrading the lighting system, they have been able to save money.

Carlson says the public school board is on the cutting edge in implementing
green technology, and they are being recognized not only in Ontario but
across Canada.
