AECOM Workshop – Sustainability at Sutton High #12

On Wednesday 14 May, 22 students participated in an in-depth workshop on sustainability, energy and carbon, hosted by AECOM Energy, leaders of environmental and social impact consulting.  Students with an interest in STEM subjects, Engineering, Architecture and Design and Technology, or a passion for Renewal Energies and Sustainable Technologies, were invited to attend. Feedback from the students, who gained an incredible understanding of industry experience, said this about the workshop:
– I loved the activities; they were really fun and thought provoking
– I really liked the design activity as it was a great opportunity to come together as a team and create an innovative solution to the problem by combining our ideas. It was also a great, interactive way to connect to and understand the topic.
– I really enjoyed the AECOM workshop; it taught me how much energy I use daily and how to make an area or environment more sustainable for the planet. It has also taught me to improve my daily life by being more sustainable, which means it will be better for me and the environment as well!
– I found the workshop extremely helpful and insightful, I got to learn more about energy usage and what we can do to decrease it and make our environment safer for the future.
Students left with a desire to know more about the different jobs available to make the world a greener place.
