"Why are we being forced to choose between the economy and the environment? We tend to forget that without an environment we would not have an economy, as everything we consume and I mean everything comes from our environment."
~ Franke James (contemporary artist, photographer, writer)
Beijing's landfills are getting full fast! Reduce the "trash" you throw away by purchasing products with minimal packaging. Look for reusable, recyclable, and biodegrable items and remember to carry your reusable shopping bags!
Beijing Green Drinks is an informal opportunity for anyone interested in CSR, social/environmental justice, sustainable development etc to meet, chat, and network. The first Beijing Green Drinks held in 2007 drew over 100 people ranging from State Environmental Protection Agency to local NGOs to environmental consultants. BJ Green Drinks has now firmly established itself as one of Beijing's most popular green networking events.
So, don't miss out on the fun! Bring friends, colleagues, and anyone else keen on greening China.
