March 27 – 29, 2011: Members of the UHERO EGGS team went to Washington DC to present at a symposium and Capitol Hill poster session hosted by the National Science Foundation supported program, SENCER (Science Education for New Civic Engagements and Responsibilities). The 2011 Washington Symposium and Capitol Hill Poster Session theme was “Students as Agents of Change.” Supported by the UH Manoa Assistant Vice Chancellor’s Office of Facilities and Grounds, the team and University were recognized as national leaders in benchmarking, monitoring, and reducing energy and greenhouse gas emissions, as demonstrated by our leadership in The Climate Registry (TCR), American College and University Presidents’ Climate Commitment (ACUPCC), and Energy Star reporting.
