Sustainability Expert Visits Ossining High School

Posted by Ellen Lane | November 21, 2011

When nationally recognized sustainability expert Jamie Cloud visited Ossining High School Thursday, she got more than she bargained for. And she couldn’t have been happier.

Cloud didn’t just hear from students who promised to turn off the lights when they left the room or use less water or recycle bottles and cans – all practices that support environmental sustainability.

She heard from students who wanted to know how to incentivize environmentally friendly practices at the corporate level, or how to transition safely and effectively from non-renewable energy sources to renewable energy. In other words, she heard from students who were thinking deeply about the problems related to ensuring that Earth’s resources can sustain future generations.
