My Sustainability Goals for 2026:

My Wishes for Hong Kong

I hope the Hong Kong Government can expand the availability of public recycling facilities across the city, making recycling more accessible and convenient for residents. A more effective and transparent recycling system, supported by clear and consistent guidance on how and where to recycle different types of waste, would help encourage greater public participation and improve overall recycling rates.
I would like to see regular public updates on recycling performance and outcomes, so residents can better understand the impact of their participation and stay engaged in sustainability efforts.

More convenient collection and recycling stations should be provided for small electronic devices and accessories, including:
Cables and wires
Headphones and earphones
SIM cards
Computer mice
Batteries
Chargers and adapters
Power banks
Other small electronic components and accessories

A more accessible and well-communicated recycling infrastructure would encourage greater public participation, reduce electronic waste, and help Hong Kong move towards a more circular and sustainable economy.
