Renewable energy: We focus on educating the society such as students at schools, employees in public and private sectors such as hospitals, education institutions, and other organizations. Basically we educate everyone about how to save energy around their environment and renewable options available. Setting education campaign about recycling.

Basically through our campaign we can turn a school into an eco-school. We consider the following ideas:

A Hospital garden growing organic vegetables - These could even be used in hospital canteen or possibly preparing food for admitted patients.
A School garden growing organic vegetables - These could even be used in a Home Economics lessons
A school composting site that could be used to help public school garden flourish
A school energy survey could be carried out. This could then be followed by some key implementations such as energy efficient light bulbs and signs educating people to switch lights off
Water from a school roof could be collected and used to water a school garden.
