GOING GREEN in Hong Kong tells you about: - Food - Home - Body - Shopping - Waste - Water - Energy - Transport - Work - Holiday - Renovating - Get Started - Green Games - Toxic Substances - Directory of green shops, products and services available in Hong Kong.           As green projects and products will no doubt bloom in Hong Kong in the coming months, we will regularly update the guidebook on this page. However, we will only be capable to do that if we find the needed financial support. So, if your company is interested in sponsoring this page, please contact us.     _________________________________________________________________________________________

As Hong Kong citizens, we all have at least two very good reasons to adopt a greener lifestyle:
Firstly, living here makes us among the heaviest polluters, per head, on the planet;
Second, we all directly suffer from all the various pollutions we generate.

Convinced that any informed person has a desire to improve his own living environment if given practical, easy-to-achieve and cost-effective information, ECOSOL is offering a guide on HOW and WHY getting on a greener path in Hong Kong.

Going Green is an educational publishing project, with no funding from any private or public organisation. It simply is an eco-citizen action aiming at sharing green tips for all of us in Hong Kong to enjoy. It can only survive with your support to the publication. And this support will be to share the book and have it circulating around.

It is the result of years of environmental journalism and research, of 12 years of living in Hong Kong, of a lot of teaching about sustainability & environment to children and older audience, and especially of all the common sense needed to raise four children in the greenest way possible here, without spending a future.

We hope the guide will be a useful source of inspiration, tips & address for you, your family & colleagues!

Nature deserves respect, and so do people!
