The Conservancy Association (CA) has been keen on various environmental issues, with “Used Clothes Collection for the environment” being one of our long-term projects. The collected used clothes will be packed and sterilize locally prior to exporting to Southeast Asia for reuse purposes, so as to achieve the goal of making good use of resources. In recent years, we are glad to see the rise of public awareness in the sense of environmental protection while hoping that the future civil society could have further improvement in waste reduction at source as well as recycling. We believed it is necessary to take coordinated and simultaneous actions in waste prevention, recycling and reuse with waste prevention being the most crucial management measure. In this sense, we should look back at the problem of excessive resource consumption while encouraging students to take part in recycling programme. Hence, we would like to invite schools across Hong Kong to join Used Clothes Collection for the Environment’s “Recycling Competition for Schools 2020”. The details are as follow:
