The Environment Bureau announced the Waste Blueprint for Hong Kong 2035 early this year, and the Municipal Solid Waste charging bill was recently legislated. As Hong Kong steps up its effort to reduce waste, this second webinar under the Leadership Forum Series will focus on how innovation and partnership can help eliminate waste and improve resource utilisation. Our keynote speaker, Secretary for the Environment Mr K.S. Wong, and other local experts and practitioners will share their views and experiences on preventing waste generation, through creating innovative solutions and investing in the circular economy.
