Waste Management
Implementing a comprehensive resource management strategy based on reducing waste at the source
The waste production per capita in Hong Kong is far higher than that of Seoul and Taipei. As an international city, Hong Kong is certainly capable of implementing a holistic resource management strategy based on waste reduction at source, hence breaking free from the dilemma of landfill or incineration. Success in waste reduction will bring Hong Kong pride.
The Green Earth has successfully advocated the inclusion of paper beverage containers in the Producer Responsibility Scheme
Quantity-based municipal solid waste (MSW) charging is the core policy promoting waste reduction at source, whereas the Producer Responsibility Scheme is a key policy tool that makes polluters shoulder the responsibility of reducing and recycling waste.
We encourage
Quantity-Based MSW Charging System
Producer Responsibility Regulation On Products Such As Beverage Containers
Green Industry Initiatives
Food Waste Reduction And Separation
The Practice Of Waste Reduction At Source And Waste Separation For Recycling By The Public
