Extra opportunities are being arranged to give young people a chance to visit Beaufort Court, the RES zero-emissions head office in Kings Langley, during the Shout about Climate Change! week at the start of November.
Saturday 3 November : 11am-1pm
Public Open Morning for 12-18 year olds
Workshop and tour. Free entry, but booking essential!
Monday 5 November - Friday 9 November
Schools taking part in Friends of the Earth's national Shout about Climate Change! campaign can organise a free class visit to Beaufort Court. A visit, lasting 2.5 hours, will give pupils the chance to see some solutions to climate change in action, including a 50m tall wind turbine, a vast solar array generating both heat and electricity, a 3m tall crop of elephant grass to fuel a biomass boiler and a natural cooling system.
