Students for the Environment
Andrew Speath was the president of Students for the Environment in the 2008-2009 academic year. He started the idea of the energy saving competition. He's holding the trophy that goes to the winning dorm.
"We are like tenant farmers chopping down the fence around our house for fuel when we should be using nature’s inexhaustible sources of energy -sun, wind and tide. ... I’d put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don’t have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that."
~ Thomas Edison to Henry Ford and Harvey Firestone (1931)
