Online Sharing Session " Wastes and Recycling under the New Normal"

10/01/2022

It is a big change in our lifestyle under the pandemic, particularly more demand for express service and food delivery. At the same time, it also produces a large amount of disposable wastes. Are all these wastes unavoidable? How could we live through this difficult pandemic while contributing to the environment? The Committee on Environmental Protection has invited two guests to share their experience in eco-friendly practices in terms of personal living and also the Hong Kong recycling industry. All are welcome!
