Sustainability tours influence youth and promote partnerships

DENTON (UNT), TX -- UNT's Office of Sustainability has been busy with its UNT Sustainability Tour. Two recent groups participating in the Tour were Duncanville ISD and representatives from SuBire Business School, a private K-12 school system in Guadalajara, Mexico.

Duncanville ISD brought a group of more than one-hundred 6th graders to UNT's campus. These energized students attended the Tour to learn more about renewable energy at schools as part of a class project. The students visited Apogee Stadium, the Environmental Education, Science and Technology (EESAT) building, and the Zero Energy (ZOE) lab at Discovery Park. On the Tour, students experienced how UNT incorporates sustainable technologies in a way that benefits the entire community. The students were also introduced to many of the traditions at UNT, allowing them to gain a better idea of UNT's culture.
