Lunchbox Lending Program (LLP) at CUHK
The use of disposable plastic utensils has been increasing with a weekly disposal amount of up to 1,400 tonnes in Hong Kong, which is equivalent to the weight of 90 double-decker buses. The Jockey Club Sustainable Campus Consumer Programme launches the Lunchbox Lending Program (LLP) at 8 government-funded universities, promoting a plastic-free takeaway culture and a low-carbon campus through technology. The programme is now being implemented at CUHK to promote low-carbon campus living, and we welcome the CUHK community and guests to join us!
