Providing EE Education to a Captive Audience

What this episode covers

Think about all the people who fill up at a water cooler every day. With a new product provided by Aqwastream--stations that allow people to fill up their own bottles with water--the company flashes the water fillers with energy efficiency messages. In addition to providing energy efficiency education--especially to college students--the company aims to help cut the energy used in producing plastic bottles. In 2006, a whopping 17 million barrels of oil were used to produce plastic bottles by avoiding the use of them altogether. In this podcast, Mare Van Dyke, Aqwastream's Co-Founder, also talks about the advantages of managing such systems remotely.
