Green Building and Our Schools

On last week's show, we talked a great deal about "Green Building", as you can tell by my last two postings. In the show we took a tour of two new "Green" schools in Rio Rancho. They feature environmentally friendly products, site designs that take full advantage of the sun, as well as some innovative heating and cooling technologies. We didn't have time to talk about it in the show, but Rio Rancho is actually part of a national case study on "green building". You can find out more about that study, and what is going on in Rio Rancho, by clicking here. This is the full interview that we conducted with Rio Rancho's Superintendent V. Sue Cleveland.
