Say No to Plastic!
In 2018, Great Eagle Group sponsored Go Green Hong Kong joining hands with Healthy Seed for the “Water for Free” project 2018/19, with a total of 50 bottle-free water dispensers installed for beneficiaries. Riding on its success, Great Eagle, Go Green Hong Kong and Healthy Seed decided to scale up the collaboration in 2019, in the name of “Say No to Plastic!”. The opening ceremony was held today officiated by Mr Wong Kam-sing, GBS, JP, Secretary for the Environment, HKSAR Government, together with Ms Michelle Au, Political Assistant to the Secretary for the Environment, Mr Kan Tak Kwong, Executive Director and General Manager, Great Eagle Group, Mr Alexander Lo, Executive Director, Great Eagle Group, Ms Rachel Pang, Founder, Go Green Hong Kong and Mr Andy Chong, Program Director, Healthy Seed.
With an aim to extend the reach of the plastic-free message, “Say No to Plastic!” 2019/20 involves the installation of 20 bottle-free water dispensers and delivering 30 education talks. In addition, the campaign is expanding its service to cover secondary school students. Ten urban farming workshops are newly added to the campaign, to deepen the participants’ understanding of the importance to reduce disposal of plastics. Filter replacement and cleaning of water storage cisterns will be arranged for the beneficiaries of “Water for Free” 2018/19, in order to allow their students and guests to enjoy clean drinking water from the dispensers.
Let's work together for a greener Hong Kong!
