6th grade students had the opportunity to ask local officials from Bensalem and Senator Farry’s office about efforts to increase sustainability in our community. They learned how our township is exploring geothermal energy, ways to reduce pollutants from reaching streams and waterways, and efforts to make our area a nice place to live through the many community outreach programs. Students will use this knowledge when completing a group project about a sustainable city and have to make decisions on energy sources, green spaces, waste management, and more.
