There are tons of easy things inspiring me outside there, a simple story would be John Hardy with his Story of Green School.<\/div>\n

A brief story of his from TED.com.<\/a><\/p>\n

After\u00a0selling his jewelry company in 2007, John Hardy and his wife, Cynthia,<\/strong> endowed a thrilling new project: the Green School in Bali. At the Green School, kids learn in open-air classrooms surrounded by acres of gardens that they tend; they learn to build with bamboo, and meanwhile they’re being prepared for traditional British school exams. The school is international –– 20 percent of students are Bali locals, some on scholarship.<\/strong> The centerpiece of the campus is the spiraling Heart of School, which may be called Asia’s largest bamboo building.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hardy has long been an advocate of the use of bamboo as an alternative to timber for building and reforestation. When running his company, Hardy pioneered a program of sustainable advertising that offset the carbon emissions associated with the yearly corporate print advertising by planting bamboo on the island of Nusa Penida in a cooperative plantation.<\/p>\n

“Green School Bali [is] one of the most amazing schools on earth.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Environmentalists and designers John and Cynthia Hardy <\/strong>wanted to motivate communities to live sustainably. Part of that effort was to show people how to build with sustainable materials, namely\u00a0bamboo<\/a>. They established the Green School, and its affiliates: the Meranggi Foundation, which develops plantations of\u00a0bamboo<\/a> plants through presenting\u00a0bamboo<\/a> seedlings to local rice farmers<\/strong>; and\u00a0PT Bambu<\/a>, a for-profit design and construction company that promotes the use of bamboo as a primary building material, in an effort to avoid the further depletion of rainforests.<\/div>\n

The Green School, a giant laboratory built by\u00a0PT Bambu<\/a>, is located on a sustainable campus straddling both sides of the Ayung River in Sibang Kaja,\u00a0Bali<\/a>, within a lush jungle with native plants and trees growing alongside sustainable organic gardens. The campus is powered by a number of alternative energy sources, including a\u00a0bamboo<\/a> sawdust hot water and cooking system, a hydro-powered vortex generator and solar panels. Campus buildings include classrooms, gym, assembly spaces, faculty housing, offices, cafes and bathrooms.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A range of architecturally significant spaces from large multi-storey communal gathering places too much smaller classrooms is a feature of the campus. Local\u00a0bamboo<\/a>, grown using sustainable methods, is used in innovative and experimental ways that demonstrate its architectural possibilities. The result is a holistic green community with a strong educational mandate that seeks to inspire students to be more curious, more engaged and more passionate about the environment and the planet.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
