Visit to O · PARK1

Is O · PARK the Ocean Park? A number of students and teachers have asked us this question. Well, the answer is no.

On 30 June 2023, our Green Planet Club organized a visit to O · PARK1, the first organic resources recovery centre in Hong Kong.

The truck and workers demonstrated how local food waste is received at the centre for organic recycling and even generating power to be supplied to the CLP and distributed to the nearby residents on Lantau Island.

We also watched a multi-sensory video on the significance of food waste treatment in Hong Kong. What’s more, the officers showed our students bottles of the product. Being clean and odourless, it could be used to fertilize the soil for planting and greenery.
