Green trend in university orientation camps: B.Y.O. Bottle! Be a Green! O Camp!
|
|
How
many plastic bottles can be generated from an orientation camp (O
Camp)? Supposing a person consumes one bottle per day, a 4-day-3-night O
Camp with 100 participants can generate 400 waste bottles, an
equivalent to 33kg carbon emission. If all the bottles are not recycled
but sent to landfills, they will take at least 450 years to be
decomposed!
No more disposable bottle! This summer, FoE (HK) and a group of students
from different tertiary education institutes once again
collaborate for the
Green! O Camp Project. First
action is to invite all O Campers to B.Y.O Bottle, to reduce bottle
waste by supporting refilling. Your O Camps can also take more green
actions to compete in the "Green! O Camp Competition". The five greenest
and most innovative camps will entitle a HK$3,000 subsidy! For details,
please visit
www.foe.org.hk/GOC.
