Horizon School Division wins gold second year in a row!
Carbon Busters would like to congratulate the Horizon School Division for winning Gold level reporting status
for Canada’s Climate Change Voluntary Challenge & Registry!
The VCR (Voluntary Challenge & Registry) was established in 1997 to encourage organizations in Canada to become more energy efficient and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions on a voluntary basis.
Gold level is the highest level of reporting achieveable and proves that the Horizon School District is on the right track in becoming a leader in energy efficiency and environmental education.
Through district initiatives and the Carbon Busters Program the Horizon School District has been able to reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions by 8.3% or 329.9 tonnes of CO2 in the first reporting year. That is as much pollution as 320 small cars would produce in 1 year. The Horizon School Division is one of only two school districts in all of Canada that achieved Gold level reporting for 2004.

Keep up the good work, Horizon!
