PROJECT HIGHTLIGHT
Brilliant Labs has partnered with Al-Pack in order to reuse and encourage recycling of cardboard. Did you know that by reusing 1 ton of corrugated cardboard you can keep 4 tons of CO2 from going into the atmosphere? Why do we love cardboard? It is recyclable, biodegradable, usually free and a great material to create prototypes. You want to make cardboard projects with your students, reach out to: info@brilliantlabs.ca for cardboard for your class or to get in touch with a specialist in your area to get inspired. Here are four examples of projects from NB students
