Food Waste Reduction Activities

banner
 

In order to raise awareness and encourage food waste reduction at source among the commercial and industrial (C&I) sectors and the public, the Environmental Protection Department is collaborating with District Councils and Green Council to promote food waste reduction in Hong Kong.  Every three to six months, we visit different shopping malls and restaurants in a district to engage C&I sectors and the public in paracticing food waste reduction.
 
It is pleased to be supported by Mr. KS Wong, The Secretary for the Environment and Kandy Wong, to be a Food Saver!
