Swiss School

Sumas Video
Sustainability school is a place where you study business bit how to make it Eco friendly
It it the only schools that has the bachelor degree as well as a master degree
The students like it their because it is very well located and is very safe
To them sustainability is the future
 Sustainable constitutions 
The world is deteriorating  
Most important thing is global warming 
There are some tools that can help us thee how we are affecting the world.
By 2050 we will need twice the area of the earth to store waste and Co2 emissions
Europe made some labels that means that it is green (better for the environment)

An inconvenient truth
Its a movie were AL gore stars in it.
If were not smart Manhattan could be under water Calcutta and shanghai over 100 million refugees would be left.\

Solar impulse
This the video made when the pilots and engineers talk to the graduating class of Arizona 
They talk about all the hardship they faced and about how an error led to them being able to fly across america.
The other solar impulse is the actual video of the guy who flew the plane across america.


Email: In my city I think the best way to apply a change would be to make solar cars. In Bogota the traffic is sucks there are times when you wont even be moving and it would be faster to take a bike but you would get mugged. If we were able to make solar efficient cars that could store the energy so that you could have 45 miles. Imagine all the money you could make because maybe this car on the long run would be cheaper than a car that runs on gas.
