It took place in Granada, Southern Spain, in may 2010. The same record
had been broken in Huelva (Spain again) just a couple of weeks before.
Spain has had a busy summer, as the project on the grounds of Facultad de Arquitectura de Granada just beat out another record-breaking recycled project
from up north. They did it by enlisting 5,000 local elementary students
to compete in sourcing as many cardboard milk containers as they could and had collected around 50,000 milk
cartons (tetra packs) and the 3 winning schools, that is the schools who
had collected the most cartons, attended the ceremony and got to see
the final product of all their hard work. The winning school had
managed to collect 4,500 bricks in just the two weeks they were given.
Dimensions were 29 metres (95 ft 1in) in length, 14.07 metres (46 ft 1in) in width and 7 metres (22 ft 11in) in height.

The event was sponsored by the local council and RESUR GRANADA (the
waste treatment company for the province) and held in the Sciences Park
of Granada.
