US Funded Environmentally Friendly Training Programme Launched


The US based Institute for Sustainable Communities (ISC) has chosen Guangdong as its first 'environment partner' in the Chinese mainland according to Xinhua.  The organisation plans to train 1,800 Chinese managers on environment, health and safety control in Guangdong every year.  

The result: to make Chinese businesses become more observant of environmental protection laws and rules.  Click here to see how ISC transformed an industrial city in Russia. Let's hope they can do the same thing on a much larger scale in Guangdong.

It's great to see foreign organisations providing training with a focus on environmental awareness and sustainability.  We all know that pushing environmental issues in China is sometimes not an easy task.

Does anyone know of any similar organisations in China providing this type of training?

That is good news then. it's very good that environmental training courses are reaching a lot of people in the different parts of the world. It's very important that all of us are in the same page regarding our responsibilities with the environment and the things that we need to do.
