Send your message in a bottle

Share your ideas about Glass Recycling in Hong Kong

The government is making glass recycling a priority for Hong Kong and recognizing that glass is not waste but resource. The government's action is due in large part to the efforts of Green Glass Green founder April Lai. Considering the effort she has made, we can at least take a few minutes to support the cause and add your voice to the numbers. Send your message in a bottle -- drop it off at your nearest District Office or deliver to the Environmental Protection Department Waste Management Policy Division at Room 4522, 45/F Revenue Tower in Wan Chai. Don't you wonder what they will do with the bottles? April is recruiting volunteers on Thursdays and Saturdays to collect glass bottles from participating bars in Soho and Wan Chai -- not a pretty job but an eye-opener for everyone who gets involved. Given that the main obstacle to glass recycling is the collection cost, this is a perfect example of where volunteers can make a significant impact. While we're on the topic, please take a moment to sign this petition and leave a comment with how many glass bottles/jars you might be able to recycle each week.
