Green like mint – Liechtenstein
VADUZ internal combustion engines emit gases that promote global warming and air pollution. In order to be aware of this, among other things, the 7Ws was environmentally friendly and green on Wednesday afternoon. In the pepperMINT in Vaduz, the schoolchildren built their own miniature cars that run on solar energy.

When we enter the pepperMINT workshop, we quickly notice that there is a very good mood here. Music is playing, the students are courteous, all smiling and working on their cars.
“It’s really cool! We have the freedom here to design the car the way we want it. We can even create the battery ourselves with the help of salt water. It’s a lot of fun! ”Says a student excitedly. Everything from cardboard boxes to wheels and screws is provided. The goal is to build a small, roadworthy car that should drive in a circle, so when do the environmentally friendly young engineers also have to plan a steering system.
Such projects are very important in our time. You can inspire the students. Perhaps one day these eager learners will develop into an environmentally conscious automobile manufacturer?
