實踐以源頭減廢為本的

整全資源管理策略

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 resources management strategy based on waste reduction at source and not being caught in the dilemma of landfill or incineration. This will make us a proud waste minimization city.

 

Quantity-based MSW charging is a leading policy to promote waste reduction at source, whereas Producer Responsibility Regulation is a key policy tool to make waste producers shoulder the responsibility of reducing and recycling waste.
