Sustainable Design
Our buildings reflect our mission by using state-of-the-art technology:
Our phone system and computer network run over the same wires network, allowing us to use one physical network instead of two or three as is common today. Much of this network runs over optical fibers to minimize the need for copper wires and decrease adverse impact on the environment.
Environmental monitoring through automated data collection of energy and water consumption allows students and adults to explore the impact of their behaviors on the rate at which we consume resources. Data collection from photovoltaics, heating, lighting, water, and other components of our facilities design helps participants better understand the sources and uses of our natural resources.

We meet the architects, the designers, and their "clients:" the children and the land.
