Wind Powered School Wins Prize

The Cassop Primary School in Durham, UK has won an award as the country's greenest school after installing a wind turbine on the school's grounds. The school has also campaigned successfully to turn a local quarry into a nature preserve and has long had solar panels on its roof. Students are organized into a "green team" to ensure that energy saving measures are followed and there is a device that monitors the school's carbon dioxide output.

Congratulations to the enterprising students, teachers, and administrators at Cassop.
