Amcham China, Tianjin Environmental and Sustainability Committee, in partnership with Tianjin International School (TIS) and International School of Tianjin (IST) are pleased to announce the official dates for the inaugural Tianjin Recycling Challenge (TReC).

TReC 2016 will start April 11 and conclude with the awards ceremony on Earth day, April 22. The TReC program comprises two events. The first is a recycled materials drive, in which the students of TIS and IST face off to see who can recover the most recyclable materials. The second part is the photo competition. Students are asked "Why Green?" and show us the answers through their photographic skills.

Seats are limited for those who would like to attend the photo exhibition and awards ceremony at IST on Friday, April 22. Doors will open at 1:30pm, with the Earth Day event running from 2pm until 2:50pm.

There are still sponsorship opportunities open to anyone who would like to show their support for the students, the environment, and the world we all share.

The AmCham Environmental & Sustainability Committee can be contacted at tjenvironcom@outlook.com and amandahe@amchamchina.org. Follow us on twitter for updates @TJenvironcom.

This event is FREE for both members and non-members, but RSVP in advance is needed.
