Sustainable Energy Workshop in Tallaght Library

On 5th of June 2013 we went to Tallaght Library for a SEAI workshop .

When we got there we went into a room with a lady called Sophie. There were lemons and little wires. We made a light from a lightbulb and the lemons . We played games and did more experiments it was really fun.

We  danced and made rockets using vitamin c tablets. We  watched a video and  it showed what we do to create electricity and what is happening to the world with so much  electricity from renewable (water)  and non renewable (oil) sources.

We learned that we need to save energy rather than waste it.

We would like to go again because  it was fun.
