ENVIRONMENTAL AUDIT OF OUR SCHOOL LORENZO DA PONTE
ELECTRIC ENERGY HEATING TRANSPORT PAPER WATER WASTE Comenius project “Let’s know, let’s love, let’s protect our environment”
2
We split into four different groups:
Transports Heating Electricity Paper consumption We have prepared a questionnaire and chosen six classes, the sample classes .
3
THESE ARE OUR SAMPLE CLASSES
110 students
4
1. Which means of transport do you use to come to school?
THE QUESTIONNAIRE: 1. Which means of transport do you use to come to school? and with what means of transport do you return? outward: □by car □ by bus □ walking □by bike come back : □by car □by bus □walking □by bike 2. How far is your home from school? 3. If you come by car, are there any students who come with you? and the return?
5
OUR GROUP STUDIES: TRANSPORT
Here we are at work!
6
Which means do you use to come to school? Total answers 110
By car on foot By bus By bike TOTAL outward 55 19 26 10 110 Come back 49 25 Total displacement 104 44 52 20 220 percentages 47% 20% 24% 9% 100%
7
371000 km in a school year (200 days)
Summary Students at School: 374 Using car: 47% (175 students) Using bus: 24% ( 90 students) Average distance covered: 7 km (return) For a total of : km in a school year (200 days)
8
If you come by car, are there any students who come with you?
31% of the students share the car with a mate
9
How far is your home from school
How far is your home from school? Of the 52 children who come to school by car 70% live at a distance equal to or less than 2 km from the school
10
THE HEATING We interviewed Luigi, our caretaker and we found out that the fuel with which we heat the school is methane
11
We requested data to the Municipality of Vittorio Veneto to know what was our methane consumption
12
Alberto, Andrea, Eros, Federico e Yaro
1 How many would be willing to lower of a degree the temperature? 2 How many people believe in class it is too hot? Alberto, Andrea, Eros, Federico e Yaro 3 How many students report that they keep the windows flapped for many hours?
13
Consumption Our school consumes cubic meters of methane per year.
14
How many people believe in class it is too hot?
often always never total 75 12 24 111 68% 11% 22% 100%
15
How many students report that they keep the windows flapped for many hours?
limelight wide open Don’t know total 86 21 4 111 77% 19% 4% 100%
16
How many would be willing to lower of a degree the temperature?
Yes No Don't know Total 87 17 7 111 78% 15% 6% 100%

CONSUMPTION OF PAPER IN OUR SCHOOL
In a whole year we consumed : 1898 Kg of paper
18
OF WHICH: PAPER A4 PAPER A3 1300 Kg per year 140 kg per year
A ream weighs 2 Kg A ream weighs 4 Kg
19
FOOLSCAP PAPER FOR THE HYGIENE 238 kg 320 Kg A ream weighs 2 Kg
A roll weighs 1,2 kg A roll weighs 60 g
20
Interviewing Mrs. Loretta we verified that in one day about two reams of paper are used, equivalent to 1000 sheets, without considering the secretariat and the presidency.
21
ELECTRICITY’S CONSUMPTIONS
22
1 classroom in a year = 464 kwh
1- In 2014 our school consumed kwh (date reported by Vittorio Veneto’s town hall) We checked and we found that in every class there are 8 neon tubes ( each neon has 58 watt) if in a classroom the light was turned on for 5 hours, it would consume : in 1 day = 2,32 kwh ( 58 watt x 8 neon tubes x 5 : 1000= 2 ,32 kwh) 1 month = 58 kwh ( 2,32kwh x 25 = 58 kwh) 1 classroom in a year = 464 kwh
23
(in five hours but the school closes at 18:00)
5- In our school there are 380 neon tubes for a consumption of 110 kwh in a day (in five hours but the school closes at 18:00)
24
IN A SCHOOL YEAR: 110 x 200 =22000 Kwh
25
How can we reduce the CO2 emissions?
26
We can reduce the emission of CO2 with simple behaviours
27
The 122 students, who live at less than 2 km from the school, could come to school walking or by bike
28
Car pooling is the best choice
You will save 237 gr CO2/per kilometer for each person
29
We found out that in our institute we only use non-recycled paper, for which production there is a bigger emission of CO2 than for the recycled paper.
30
which is above 2012 cubic meters of methane in a school year
Decreasing the heater’s temperature of 1 ° Celsius our consumption would decrease of 7%, which is above 2012 cubic meters of methane in a school year
31
We saw that in the aisles the lights are always on, therefore we have to find a solution to save energy .
32
We can do a lot to reduce the emission of co2.
1)If we switched off half the lights that are in corridors we would save 4060 KWh per year. 2)If we switched off the light in the classrooms during the break we would save 23,2 KWh for each classroom.
33
Our results TOTAL: kg CO2
34
Putting in practice 3^ A hints
TOTAL: kg CO2
35
CO2 saved kg CO2 Everybody can!!!!!!
