Description
越來越多人喜歡走進郊野享受大自然,但郊野垃圾量亦隨之增加。根據統計,2023 年的郊野垃圾量接近 2,700 公噸,數字驚人。這些垃圾不僅破壞環境,更反映了我們把城市的便利習慣帶入山林,忽略了「行山也有禮儀」與「無痕山林」的精神。
「跟著垃圾去旅行」的淨山活動,邀請大家在行山的同時出一分力,清理山徑上的垃圾,讓大自然回復美麗。過程中,我們會共同分析郊野垃圾,探索這些廢物背後的生活文化,並反思香港所面臨的廢物壓力。透過這樣的體驗,我們能更深刻理解保護自
然的重要性,並學習如何以更可持續的方式享受郊野。
More and more people are heading into the countryside to enjoy nature, but the amount of trash left behind has also grown. In 2023, waste collected from Hong Kong’s country parks reached nearly 2,700 tonnes—a shocking figure that highlights the mounting pressure on our natural environment. Much of this litter reflects how urban convenience habits are carried into the wild, undermining the spirit of “Leave No Trace.”
Through the “Waste Hunting in the Wild” clean‑up, participants can appreciate the beauty of the trails while taking action to restore them. By collecting and analyzing the types of waste found along the paths, we uncover the stories behind these discarded items and reflect on our living culture. This hands‑on experience is both meaningful and eye‑opening, inspiring us to rethink how we interact with nature and to adopt more sustainable practices that protect Hong Kong’s countryside.
