Eco Company Stories

The Nigiri Project

Eco Company visits the  Sacramento River watershed to learn about the Nigiri Project.  It's a cooperative effort to help the endangered Chinook Salmon population by allowing salmon fry to grow in rice fields until they're big enough to make the journey out to sea.

Mojave Solar

We are all accustomed to seeing solar panels on roofs around neighborhoods. But you probably haven't seen mirrored solar panels that focus sunlight to generate heat that powers a large turbine? We traveled to the Mojave Desert to see how they work!.

Solar Decathlon Pt1

Two universities, just down the road from one other, are are among 20 schools are selected to design, build and operate solar powered houses that are cost-effective, energy efficient and attractive. We visit California State University Sacramento and University of California Davis as they build their homes.

Solar Decathlon Judging

Eco Company travels to Irvine, California, the site of the Solar Decathlon competition. Both Sacramento State and UC Davis got their houses built on time and transported to the site of the competition. We get a tour to see how concepts turned into reality.

Tide Pool Organisms

High school students go wading into ocean tide pools at low tide. They're looking for sea creatures to replenish the marine organisms in their educational lab. Nature Bridge.

Solar Suitcases

Laguna Creek High School in Elk Grove, California has a very cool Green  Energy Technology Academy. One of their projects is a real product helping to bring electricity and light to people around the world.

Salt Pond Restoration

The second largest wetland restoration project in the U.S. is located  along the San Francisco Bay. For decades a salt production company used  the natural area for solar salt production. But what remains now is an  eco-wasteland. On this day a group of teens have volunteered their time  to remove unwanted vegetation and plant seedlings natural to the  habitat.

Majestic Redwoods

Redwood trees go back to when dinosaurs roamed the earth. Some of them  can live more than 3,000 years! Some of them grow to more than 25  stories tall! Is climate change affecting them too? Jalena talks to  biodiversity scientist Dr. Healy Hamilton to see what the future holds.

Raptors & The Environment

We meet some teens spending the day learning about raptors and their relationships with the environment and farmers! The day culminates with the teens building box homes for barn owls. It's day of discovery for all.

Organic Cotton

It may look clean, but cotton has a big footprint in the world.  Cotton  growers use 11 percent of the world's pesticides and it takes more than  700 gallons of water to grow enough cotton to make just one T-shirt. But  some farmers are doing things differently.  Jordan heads out to the  fields to find out how.
