At most schools “going green” means bringing out less trash or trying to recycle. But at New York’s Riverdale Country School, it means asking kids to walk, run and even jump in the hallway. That’s because on January 7th, 2014, the school became the first place to use the special floor tiles(瓷砖).

The tiles get energy made by the kids and turn it into electricity that can be used for classroom lights, science projects. It was 14-year-old Zach Halem who tried to ask the official to buy the tiles and install(安装) them near the school’s student center.

Besides providing fun green energy, the tiles also serve as a learning tool. Every time a student walks on one, a screen will show how much energy was produced. It makes kid feel proud because of saving energy.

The tiles that were made largely from rubber and other recycled materials have been around since 2009, and the idea was created by 26-year-old British Industrial designer Laurence Kembell. While new to the US, the tiles have been installed in many places in Europe—from a London underground station during the 2012 Olympics to a street in Paris.

However, it was not until PaveGen(发电地砖系统) started getting popular in London school that Laurence realized that his invention not only saved energy, but also was fun! 56. Is the US school the first place to use floor tiles in the world?
