Eco Company Teens

Jessica gets down to earth, quite literally! She learns how restaurant scraps can provide the nitrogen and wonderful nutrients needed to make the compost that goes back to farms and wineries to grow our food.

Buildings account for 50% of the country’s energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Eco Company wanted to know what eco-conscious trends are leading the building design and construction industry.

Eco Company visits a local farmers market to talk to farmers about growing organic produce. Then Jessica visits an organic farm that specializes in tomatoes and melons…and a whole lot more.

Eco Company hits the road on a bike, but not your ordinary bike. Bikes are a great way to reduce fuel consumption, save energy, get exercise and enjoy the great outdoors. But Brendan found a bike maker who has taken sustainability a step further. He makes his bikes from bamboo instead of aluminum, titanium or other metals. It's a great way to use a renewable resource to make a zero energy form of transportation even more eco-friendly!
