Terraset Sun, 28 min. color, 1978. Director: Chris Bedfgord. Distributor: Solarium Productions.
Reston, Virginia was faced in 1976 with the need to build a new elementary school. Concerned by the ever-increasing costs of building and maintaining schools, the school board set about finding a more efficient answer to the problem. The Terraset Elementary School was the result. It was built very largely into the ground to utilize the earth’s own heat, and it also uses solar energy for both heating and cooling the building. Scenes of the children in their new building give one the impression that this has been a very successful venture. Although this solution is obviously not applicable to all towns, this a provocative film which would benefit town planners and legislatures, as well as taxpayers seeking to hold down local expenses.
