COP27 Sharing Sessions & COP28 Student Ambassador Training Programme
In response to the “Hong Kong's Climate Action Plan 2050” and “White Paper: Responding to Climate Change: China's Policies and Actions”, The Conservancy Association (CA) & the Consulate General of the United Arab Emirates in HK hosted the “COP27 Sharing Sessions & COP28 Student Ambassador Training Programme” in mid-July, aiming at broadening students’ horizons and encouraging them to participate in climate change mitigation trends and actions. 400 school invitations were launched in May, and we ended up hosting 8 sharing & ambassador recruitment sessions, covering 9 schools with more than 500 participants in total. After reviewing the 11 action plans submitted, followed by presentations & interviews, two outstanding ambassadors were selected to participate in the upcoming COP28 summit in the UAE as NGO observers. We look forward to seeing them put their ideas into practice and share insights from their experience and journey with local students and the public!

CA Eco-Rangers 2023
During the pandemic, Plastic Trasher went on a rampage, leaving behind rubbish all over the countryside. To restore the environment to its original state, Eco-Rangers have repeatedly gone to the country parks and beaches to engage in hill and beach cleaning. They did not only remove litter from mountains, fields, and coastlines, but also recycle recyclables left behind by humans, allowing the recyclables to enter the realm of a circular economy.
As COVID-19 subsided, the problem of countryside litter remained unresolved, while the threat of global warming crept ever closer. Greenhouse effect has led to rising temperature on Earth; nowhere is safe from the attack of heatwaves. The Hong Kong Observatory has also added the “Extremely Hot” weather warning, evidence that the issue is right at our doorstep.
Extreme weathers have brought disasters to all parts of the world, including severe wildfires in Canada, Hawaii, Greece, Australia and more. Prolonged high temperatures have evaporated water from the Earth’s surface and vegetation, causing forests to become dry and highly flammable. This creates the perfect conditions for wildfires, where even a tiny spark can trigger a massive blaze, engulfing entire woodlands. Large trees not only provide shade for humans, but also play a crucial role in mitigating climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The bigger and older the trees are, the more carbon can be stored. If forests around the globe shrink significantly, there will be far fewer trees to take up carbon; at the same time, carbon stock in trees will be released into the atmosphere, increasing the carbon dioxide concentration and worsening the impact of global warming.
Our countryside is no stranger to man-made hill fires. In the face of such challenges, Eco-Rangers must gather at once to defend the environment!
