Green Events
After the launch of “A Waste Reduction Guidebook for Large Scale Event Organisers” (Guidebook), the Environmental Protection Department (EPD) has been collaborating with event organisers of mega events of different nature with a view to implementing green measures as recommended in the Guidebook with the joint effort of the commissioned consultants and green groups. Some past green events include the Hong Kong Sevens, the Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon, the Hong Kong Flower Show and the Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival etc.

Experience Sharing
With numerous events of different nature and scales held in Hong Kong every year, event organisers should pay more attention to the promotion and practice of waste reduction and recycling when preparing various exhibitions and publicity activities. They are encouraged to take the lead and set an example for other event organisers to raise the environmental performance of the events and publicise the results to the public directly.
