想節能，修例能？ — 談外地對建築物能源效益的規管
最近政府向立法會內會提交了 2025 年度立法議程，環保政策方面，上榜的有《建築物能源效益條例》的修訂。香港的建築物佔全港用電量約 90%，政府在十多年前制訂《建築物能源效益條例》，要求建築物業主每十年進行一次能源審核，除了申報能源使用指數（EUI；用於計算建築物的耗能密度），還要找出「能源管理機會」（簡單理解是節能建議），藉此驅使建築物相關界別節約能源。《條例》實行多年以後，政府主動提出修改，固然值得支持。在過去十多年，世界各地都著手改善建築物的能源效益，現時內地和海外都有一些做法，或有參考價值。

What Hong Kong’s 2023 waste data tells us, and what it doesn’t
(25 Dec 2024 SCMP) Hong Kong finally published last year’s waste statistics on December 19, nearly a month after Secretary for Environment and Ecology Tse Chin-wan shared some of the more positive developments in his blog on November 24.
