Temporary Classrooms Are Bad For the Environment, and Worse For Kids
tcd004 (134130) writes "You've always suspected those trailer-type portable classrooms are no good, right? It turns out you're right. Analysis of prefabricated classrooms in Washington shows the structures often don't allow for proper ventilation, leading to terrible air quality for kids. Students in temporary classrooms have higher rates of absenteeism than those in standard classrooms. And the energy-inefficient structures often become permanent, sucking on school energy bills for decades, and requiring more upkeep than permanent classrooms. What's needed are new designs for healthy, sustainable temporary classrooms."
I know that I have chosen to throw $25k down the toilet each year in the hopes that my kids will someday become a Slashdot troll.
W..w..W - Willy Waterloo washes Warren Wiggins who is washing Waldo Woo.
No. What's needed are more permanent classrooms.
Yeah, but then the hippies who sponsored this "news report" won't get $200,000 a pop for their "sustainable" portable classroom.
SJW's don't eliminate discrimination. They just expropriate it for themselves.
