Power Point Presentations

As you launch into the issue areas of the Green Flag program, you will want to educate your team and other administrators at your school.  The below Power Point presentations will help everyone to understand the issues, and figure out steps for moving forward.

Energy Conservation

This graphic-filled presentation will guide you in talking to your school about the environmental and health implications of energy production, and easy ways to save energy.  Detailed tables will list effective actions and the financial benefits for implementing them.

Green Cleaning

More and more schools are making the switch to green cleaners as the evidence for the harmful effects of common cleaning chemicals emerges.  This presentation explains some of the health and environmental problems associated with cleaning chemicals and also provides information on the many alternatives available.

Recycling

This presentation is useful for any school, even those with a successful recycling program.  It will guide your Green Flag committee in investigating the school’s waste stream, improving recycling rates, proper recycling, and student involvement. This powerpoint is a template, and includes slides where you will be asked to put in your school's specific characteristics.  It is not a complete powerpoint until your information is added.

Integrated Pest Management

Pesticides have long been linked to cancer, respiratory problems, and other severe health problems.  There is a growing movement to eliminate pesticides from school grounds and implement the preventative approach of Integrated Pest Management.  This powerpoint will describe the ill effects of pesticides, and provide a thorough background about IPM.
