Food Waste’s Way Out
2024-11-04
(The programme's Chinese version was telecast on 14/03/2024)
According to Environmental Protection Department, in 2022, approximately 11,000 tonnes of urban municipal solid waste (MSW) were disposed in landfills each day. Food waste constitutes the largest portion, accounting for 30%. Enhancing food waste recycling and reducing disposal have become inevitable challenges for households, restaurants, food manufacturers, and others. The government has been gradually expanding the food waste collection network, including the trial use of smart food waste bins in public and private housing estates. How effective has it been in cultivating citizens' habits of food waste recycling? Are the technologies and facilities ready to handle the large amount of food waste collected?

If “ Hong Kong Connection ” were a tree, how old would it be? It was on 5 March, 1978 that the documentary series first went on the air in Chinese.
As the series continues, its staff are determined to go on uncovering and delving into every local and international topic that concerns the people in Hong Kong, whether it be political, economic, educational, commercial, environmental or technological.
A tree plays an important environmental role in refreshing the air that we breathe and holding from the earth on which we stand. It is Hong Kong Connection's mission to provide the public with information and analyses as well as an opportunity for rational discussion.
The programme is aired from 29 May 2023 (Monday) on RTHK32 at 9:30pm - 10:00pm.
