Program Description:

Energy is all around us. We use it every day, but where does it come from? Review energy types, explore personal energy usage and contrast renewable and non-renewable sources of electricity. As a grand finale, use renewable energy kits to experiment with several types of clean energy before getting a chance to explore a roof that is green in more ways than one.
