Energy Challenge
energyStudents, teachers and staff discover they have the power to save energy in their schools, and that their actions can translate into positive change in the world.

During this year's Green Cup Challenge, 300 participating GCC schools conserved over 1.5 Gigawatts of electricity over a period of four weeks. That's over 2.5 million lbs of CO2 that were kept out of our atmosphere in just one month.
