They are merely made aware of simple ways to conserve energy and are encouraged to share this knowledge with their family (or have I missed the part were they will be reporting to Al Gore?) and this is done in a playfull way.
...British energy company recruits kids to keep records, bust parents for "energy crimes." It's all reminiscent of the Hitler Youth, isn't it?
