Problems such as global warming and diminishing natural resources demand action from all of us.  As students, you have the creativity and education needed to solve the environmental issues of today and of the future.  After all, YOU are the ones who will be most affected.

  • How can we harness and use solar or wind power?
  • What are other potential sources of renewable energy?
  • What can we do to recycle more and cause less waste?
  • How can we provide clean water to parts of our planet that need it the most?
  • What can each of us do to prevent climate change, and protect endangered species, our oceans and the rainforests?

There is a lot to consider in the Environment category!

The Cummins mission statement demands that:

everything we do leads to a cleaner, healthier, safer environment.

What can you do in your school and your community, with your family and friends, to do the same?

Cummins employees have a wealth of experience in reducing negative environmental impact – both in our products and in our facilities.  We are excited to take that knowledge and commitment outside of our walls and help students like you ensure that everything we ALL do leads to a cleaner, healthier and safer environment.

Cummins has sites all over the world, and we have project mentors standing by who can come to nearby schools to work with you on your projects. Contact us at info@teentechevent.com and we’ll put you in touch with the nearest Cummins Corporate Responsibility representative.
