Indian school sets world record for creating world’s largest handmade recycled paper

We just love watching world records being made and broken; the green one’s sure make us smile. Here’s a record set by the class IX students of the Ryan International School in Ludhiana, Punjab in India. The students have made the largest piece of handmade recycled paper ever, measuring around 1050.4sqft and will show up in the 2012 edition of the Limca Book of Records. The Guinness world record was marked at 675sq.feet, while the Ryan International one is almost double the size. What started off as just a humble gesture towards sustainable development by the school principal, Dr. Augustine Francis Pinto turned into a world-record breaker.

And of course, the students are just delighted to having their efforts of helping with a green cause gaining world recognition. The record couldn’t be registered in the 2011 version of the Limca book however since it has already been published and will release this coming January.
