Energy, water and waste auditsin HDB households are performed by volunteers in order to identify areasfor improvement.The theme for this time was ´Energyµ. A healthy turnout of 60 studentsfrom ITE College West volunteered to go door-to-door to conduct theaudits.Most of the students had already taken part in the previous audits. This ishelpful in building up a relationship between students and residents.There have been a training session at ITE College West at 26.06.2011and the volunteers get a short briefing before the audit starts.
