| Summary |
This short was produced by The Green Interview for the Nova Scotia Community College (NSCC), which provides trades training and vocational education on 13 campuses and in six community learning centres. The flagship campus on the Dartmouth waterfront, featured in this short, was designed to be a model of sustainability that would lead the whole province. The building was constructed to LEED Gold standards, which require top-quality energy and water efficiency, use of renewable local materials, respectful use of the land and much more. The building has three living walls, two inside and one outside, plus 8,000 square feet of green roof growing a range of local plants. It has photovoltaic panels, geothermal and passive solar heating and cooling, and five types of wind turbines. It recently received Gold certification by STARS (Sustainability Tracking, Assessment and Recording System) ranking well ahead of senior institutions like Dalhousie, McGill and Concordia. In this short viewers will be introduced to many of the players within the NSCC and some inspiring examples of what can be done when there's a will to do it |
