[|Earth Force] Earth Force is a great resource with staff that can help with your project. Buist Academy has done several Earth Force projects, such as 1) researching the effects of sunlight in classrooms and then installing windows in the classroom and 2) researching health problems related to carpeting and then installing hypo-allergenic carpeting in the classroom. One group of students from another Charleston school was able to convince the city to put a walking / biking lane on the new bridge over the Cooper River.
