About the Event
Science, engineering, CTE, social studies, and language arts teachers, as well as teams interested in locally relevant, integrated problem-solving will be engaged in lively dialogue with Mark Buehrer from 2020 Engineering and Lab Facilitator, Peter Donaldson, to identify PBL entry points from a fascinating new model of local food production that closes the loop on food waste resulting in a community-owned and operated facility that can grow food year-round in any climate based on net-zero waste, net-zero energy, net-zero water, net-zero carbon, and circular economy principles.
