The Renewable World is a Department for Education (DfE) project, developed as part of the Growing Schools programme. It is managed by Farming and Countryside Education (FACE). The project has been prompted by the rapidly developing interest in, and understanding of, renewable materials. In particular, their value in helping to develop a more sustainable future is being recognised. The Renewable World game is underpinned by sound science, coordinated by the National Non-Food Crops Centre (NNFCC), and drawing on a panel of experts in this cutting-edge technology.
In this area of the website you can find out more about the Renewable World project, and tap into a wide range of background information to help you make the most of the resources it contains. The information is arranged in five sections; clicking on the heading will take you straight to that section.
